When Is The Best Time To Plant A Tree?

Answer:  Twenty Years Ago.

Golden Showers

No, we haven't started partaking in this particular form of sexual delight.  That is the local name of this spectacular tree one of my neighbours have.

So I planted one 12 years ago when I retired.

This is my tree now.  Its trunk is only about a quarter as thick as my neighbour's.

But this year, it put forth a solitary flower for the first time ever!  Hopefully, we get more next summer.
