Another Elm Air layer

I had 3 broom shohin Elms which was 2 too many. I sold one a few weeks ago which got me down to two. I looked at the other two and decided that this one with inverse taper needed to change to make it worth keeping. I opted to air layer it to make a clump style image. This is it before and after the layer.

Facelift

I’ve had this Elm group for a while on my For Sale list but I think the cracked red Cat litter tray was putting a few interested folk off. I decided to transfer it over onto a slate to make a better image.

First Swallow 2014

I compete with my Dad every year to see who can spot the first Swallow of Summer. Yesterday I was visiting him at the farm where I grew up and guess what flew over head?  I saw it first though 😀 A nice moment to share.

Expect to See A lot of These This Year

 

I don’t think I’ve seen a year like this for Hawthorn flower buds. I expect to see some of the best colour next month.
