can I mix the ashes of my recently deceased dog with the soil I am planting a Rowan sapling into ? some people say yes but others say the mineral balance may have an adverse effect on the tree, please advise, many thanks

Lovely idea! :) I add my fire wood ash to the soil all the time. No adverse effects yet.

It is a lovely idea and a great way to remember your friend. I asked the question about human ashes a few years ago but decided on scattering them with the rest of the family. Good job too because we moved last year!

If the sapling is going to be planted in the ground then, yes, go ahead and add your dogs ashes. I'd be slightly wary if it is going into a container though.
