Once again tree hating neighbours going on and on about my tree and a few leaves blowing around. I planted a slim horn beam that is tall but narrow and the majority of the leaves fall in my garden and a few go over the fence if the wind blows hard.
I'm also planting a flagpole cherry...grows straight up. No spreading branches.
I put the trees in as the house that backs onto mine can see straight into my house.
I was considering my neighbours when I anted them by not planting an enormous tree like an oak. Neither tree affects their sunlight.
They detest the trees more than death. They go on an on about them.
Both neighbours have artificial turf and no plants of their own. Its so depressing.
Why are people so angry about trees and wildlife. We need them.
So far I've just ignored them. I collect my leaves and compost them. They do wonders for my plants.
It seems to me that people more and more want to live In barren empty landscapes. I cant understand it.
