A friend has a lot of different trees and greenery around his property and as Nature takes it's course; the trees have been seeding themselves around the place naturally. Well, we spent a few hours digging up the saplings of Ash and Sycamore and potting them in compost made from pure dried cow poop that's about 30 years old or more.
Ended up with about 5 Sycamore saplings/shoots and about 15 - 20 Ash saplings/shoots. Also got 1 Willow twiglet thingy with hundreds more available for me - which will be great for soaking up most of the water/moisture in my back garden. Question regarding Willow shoots... do they make for good arrow shafts?
Here's a pic of my "haul" from today
