  • Hi GWRS,
    roughly how long ago did you start them , and what sort of height are they now? I'm just curious to know rate of growth. A foot per year or whatever.

    From small whips, they might grow at that rate, but it's determined by your growing conditions/climate. 
    That's roughly how quickly the seedlings/whips I've had grow here, but they have plenty of rain. They'll take a while to get going initially, as with any tree/shrub, and then put on good growth each year. The small whip which was growing here among other random items,  is now about 6 or 7 feet, after I planted it around five years ago. 
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
