2020/21 - What's made you happy today?

A nicely laid hedge

OMG! Did you do that?? I would love a hedge like that.

I cant take the credit, father in law and sister in law did the technical work. Weve got approx 150' or so of mixed deciduous hedge all laid now. It's mainly hawthorn, with a little field maple, hazel, guielder rose, some less wanted brambles, a random bit of lilac, a gooseberry (no idea) and a patch of something that we're not sure what it is.

I planted hawthorn, sloe, field maple, hazel and guelder rose - about 180? Exactly 2 years ago now.I would love to know what to do...too early to lay?

It was a cold horrible job to plant them in...was wondering this year whether the rose was a good thing to plant. It is so tall. I was wondering should I cut some of the stems out this year.
