Tree planting

There was  a tree planting in Southwark
Park last Thursday and quite a number of staff and students from Bede were there to help out. I helped with a bit of  digging.The saplings planted included apple, cherry and peach. I'm not sure how long it will take for them to grow to a reasonable size...apparently they (apple trees) can grow at between 12-24 inches each year, though they won't usually grow  much  more than 25 to 30 feet anyway.
