I'm afraid I have no idea what Trust pilot is ! ( last flew 25 years ago and expected the pilots always to be trustworthy!) If you would like me to say that I received a lovely tree in excellent condition then I am more than happy that you quote me.! Regards, Clive A 0525-35337
Dear Senior Dogsbody AKA Alan Russell, Thank you for your email. The large fern leaved beech we ordered arrived in perfect condition and is now happily in the ground getting used to it's new surroundings. We are hoping that it will help blot out the rather large cattle shed that appeared two fields away last year, whilst not providing fodder for the inhabitants of the aforementioned shed. We will certainly be ordering further trees from you in the future because you were able to supply just what we wanted when we wanted it and a very good tree too! Thank you Celia Thomas 0316
Ornamental Tree Roots In The Shade e.g. Behind A Fence
It is more important that that foliage (posh term for leaves) receives the sunlight than the roots. So if the canopy of your ornamental tree can sunbathe but the bottom of your tree thinks there has been a nuclear winter then that is ok. You might want to ensure you have good drainage as water and no sun is the start of algae and other such issues.

Planting In The Corner Of A Garden
Air and light is reduced in this location which could promote fungus and bacterial issues. If the corner is of the house and a fence then you also have leeching issues to contend with from cement and wood preservatives. Also when it rains, that area would experience higher water levels so we advise against it unless the plant is very hardy.
