Hi all

I was of course speaking hypothetically to raise the point, although I have quite a few trees growing in grow beds that have been planted about 10 years ago and i am planning to have them there for at least another 10 years. Give me another 20 years and I may be able to prove my point.

I agree that a degree of artistic talent is imperative, but that is nothing without the knowlede of how to keep a tree growing strongly and healthily. Chance says that one out of 50 would be reasonable stock

Tony
Good Point! Time = Money. Right?

Bart
Maybe not initially but 40 years is a long time to learn and 50 trees would allow for some considerable margin of error.

All the best

Mike
