Busy gardeners, new gardeners, four season flowering.
other plantings and give you a feel for the changing seasons.
In the last three garden I have had, all the trees were grafted weepers, these come in a variety of heights and don't seem to upset the neighbours as much as taller trees.
In winter, check out your local nursery to see which trees are offered bare rooted to plant. Buying bare rooted saves you as much as 40% on the cost of the tree.
Although it is hard, because at first you want to have everything, try and stick to plantings of several things from each list depending on your budget.
If possible, plant in uneven numbers and try not to plant less than five of anything.
Things look nice when flowering in the company of kin.
You have a life time ahead of you, over the years, as you become more accustomed to your new growing skills you can add to your hearts delight. From your initial planting's, you will have surplus to barter with for the new plants of your choice.
cheers - Gary.
