More on Planting . . .

Supply chains have started to come back online and plant material is a bit easier to find. Autumn Trees mission for 2023 will be to help add to the diversification of our urban trees "High tree diversity is argued to be the most important requisite for a resilient urban forest" (H. Sjöman, 2018, p.1). So do not be surprised if your Arborist recommends a tree not widely used in our landscapes!
