Tomorrow morning the Trachycarpus is being felled...it has become enormous so for safety sake its days will end.

Be a sad day for it Julia..

Sorry no like.

That's sad. I felt the same way when we had our large birch taken down a few months ago.

Well it needed to come down, Julia, didn't it..
Now the plan for that area, something to look forward too..:)

Lots more light, you're garden will enjoy that..:)

Mmm, anxiety inducing!

Shame you had to have the tree felled, but sometimes these things have to happen and it looks like you made a good decision.

It's a pity, Julia. It did look grand! I guess it was struggling now, by the sounds of it.
Safety first as you say.
Lovely panoramic view of this part of your garden.
