I was tidying up my little tree nursery last weekend and realised I had a lot of Oak saplings ready to plant up this coming winter. Over the last few years, I have gathered enough acorns to start a small Oak woodland, so I thought I'd help you differentiate between the two predominant species of Oaks in Ireland - the Sessile Oak, and the Pedunculate Oak.
One of my favourite native trees, let me introduce you to Hazel this week. Not only does it provide tasty treats for us humans in the Autumn and Winter, but have you ever seen its tiny but beautiful pink flower? Come and discover it with me...
