Tree Planting Time



Royal Poinciana
(my mother's day present)
6 Slash Pine
(If they weren't behind a wire fence
the goats would eat them in a day.)

~~~~~
One of my favorite things to do is plant trees.
This summer we have planted seven.
We have had the Royal Poinciana since May,
but waited until the rainy season to plant it.
The horse can reach the lowest branch but she hasn't eaten it yet.
The 6 Slash Pines we have raised from seedlings
and transplanted this summer to a corner of our pasture.

Now is the time I wish them luck and hope they make it.
