A shame about the Garrick tree. Perhaps, you will find a healthy tree to substitute?

On reading that they need very little maintenance, are robust & slow growing, hopefully they will thrive adapting to our changing weather patterns & climate..

I’m up for doing the transport run again in 2025.

Let’s hope it is third time lucky!

It is baffling that none survived.
I have mentioned previously that I live near a mulberry tree planted by Sir Edward Elgar. I wonder if propagation from seed is an option? I know that it often isn’t due to hybridisation.
