The willow is already budding...

Looking great - needs to be watered twice a week for a while though...

Once it starts bushing out we can either keep it trimmed back so you can still see the structure, or let it bush out - we'll see how it goes!

Getting there - the neighbours like it! They popped around and spoke to Anthony

Weaving...

The first few meters only 80 to do.... Looking good already

French Anthony rotivated the line where the living will hedge will be.

More kitchen garden

kitchen garden again

The kitchen garden was in a bit of a state.... Anthony has weeded and replaced some of the dead things (there were surprisingly few!)

A new laurel to fill out the gap between the gates and the house.

Anthony has been down to France to plant up a living willow hedge on the boundary of the property - 80 meters of it! These are the living willows that he'll be planting over the next week or so....
