Hi my friend, enjoy your trip to the cemetery. I liked the British cemetery in Kefalonia, very interesting reading the headstone and got some seeds from a tree which we grew into trees here, sadly lost them the winter of 2008 but found some more of the same tree seeds in Corfu so o.h. will be trying to get those growing when the weather is warmer. If they work I will bring you a seedling when you are in Norwich and they are big enough to leave home!!!

love

Glad you had a successful visit Marilyn.

Our trees were a sort of Mimosa, we grew loads and gave most away and no one kept theirs as long as we did.

We will have another try and know better how to look after them in winter.

Well done Fred, it's great to get something as a memento!
