It is always good to check over nocturnal plantings during daylight hours, as I am doing today.
Sometimes I find that holes are not filled in properly, and occasionally I find I have put some in upside down. Such daylight checks give me the opportunity to disguise any disturbed earth, with some grass and just really; to get a clear view of what I have done the night before.
This now; misty roadside site is largely covered in Reeds and Brambles, at least on the parts I have planted. So these trees should be well protected.
Altogether this particular site is about 10% planted and has been added to gradually, over a decade.
Hopefully I won't need to add any more trees to this site.
Hopefully I have added all the right ingredients, to allow nature to colonise the remaining area its self. And beyond!
The last picture is of a Hazel. Planted about a decade ago. Living proof that Trees like it (& thrive) up here.
Hopefully my actions here, will give nature the ability to regenerate the forests, which should naturally cover this whole area.
