We have a very distressed globe willow in the front yard that my DH thinks should probably be cut down, but it shades the front door and living room and is just the main character of our small front yard. It's one of the first trees to bud in the spring (now, in fact) and it would break my heart to lose it.<BR/><BR/>The garden idea is wonderful, though. And it probably wouldn't have worked with the tree there. Best of luck with it!<BR/><BR/>word verification game: preticid-adj. meaning "before ticid"gocrazywithmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04063066209331964997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-81814960141183814802009-03-15T06:25:00.000-06:002009-03-15T06:25:00.000-06:00Sad to see it go, but I wouldn't want it in my liv...Sad to see it go, but I wouldn't want it in my living room during a windy day either!<BR/><BR/>New Spring planting will be fun!

The town would come and do it, and they charged a lot. Got to the point, they said they wouldn't come out any more, so it had to go. I miss the shade and the beauty, couldn't be helped.
