Collected Privet

Post by Josh »

Finally potted up this Privet I collected a few years ago. The pot is deeper than I wanted but I'm having trouble finding one wide enough but not too deep.

We all start somewhere mate, Every time I have to move it I wonder why I do it lol. With these trees I love that some one else thought it was rubbish and was going to throw it out. If only they saw it now. I'm itching to get back to meeting in person again, zoom is ok but nothing beats face to face.

I'm only 48 but I still have a sore back lol. Once you start doing bigger stuff you have to set up for it. My benches are similar height to my trolley so I just slide them on and off. Re potting is the issue, there's just no easy way to do it.
