Summer 2008 garden reno completed.

That tree trunk is very large and adds a lot of interest....

It is one of three Silver Maple. It grows pretty quick, like the Golden Weeping Willow. I believe this tree is about 80 years old. I remove all the grass from around the base, eliminating roots competition, and apply mulch to guarantee 100% water to the tree.
