New Trees

Friends of ours offered up some trees that they had growing in their yard.  Of course, we managed to arrange transplant day to be the same as the day that Bob was arriving for a visit.  The poor man had hardly finished his supper and we rushed him off to dig trees out and then replant them in our yard.  We managed to sucessfully plant 3 Maple trees, 5 Maydays, 2 Mountain Ash and 2 Red Osier Dogwood.  10 of last years poplars did not make the winter but, as we planted extra, we can replace them.  All of the shrubs survived and we even have one lilac that has produced flowers.
