    I can't wait to see your Apricot and Fig crops. I wish you well with the growth. I can't grow a thing, so I specialize in exotic weeds and trees that seed themselves. So I'm serious when I say, I wish you well. Great digging Lionel.....crack on!

      Oh we have plenty of weeds too - I'm really hoping these trees do well - the first apricot will be magical

    Excellent moment pour planter👍on dit « à la ste Catherine tout bois prend racine » Ste Catherine étant fêté le 25 novembre . Cela dit, habituellement il ne fait pas aussi froid en novembre . Vos vidéos sont vraiment amusantes 😂continuez à nous faire sourire en ces temps anxiogènes !!

    Spear & Jackson are excellent spades. I have one and it’s capable of handling a huge amount of pressure. I’ve dug up roots with it. Cheaper ones just break.

    That was fun. I watched closely for when we plant a couple of trees in the spring. 😉 The fall planting time is too late for us as the snow has already arrived here. Another fun time, I do enjoy you both. Ronnie in Saskatchewan

    the walnut needs to have its special place not too close to the fruit trees as in its vicinity no other plant nor tree will get enough water out of the soil

    • @robstephens
      @robstephens 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Walnut trees produce a substance called juglone that tends to prevent other plants from growing in the vicinity of the tree. Yours is probably alright due to the distance from the other trees.

    • @OurChateauLife
      @OurChateauLife  9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thats interesting, its probably about 5 metres away from the other trees - do you think thats enough?

      @@OurChateauLife it depends on how high & wide the tree will get. walnut trees have beautiful crowns and wide ones and in their diameter nothing much can thrive.

      @@OurChateauLife It would probably take several decades for the walnut tree to affect the other trees. They mainly affect under-story trees.

    I brought a Apricot tree for our Orchard they will only fruit if the winter is cold , my one has taken 3 years to give any fruit they grown into a med size tree and sometimes u need more then 1 which u brought 2 . Plums seem to be the most easy tree to grow as i have 3. Two older ones and 1 new one that has in the 3 years given fruit after the second winter . Also have a Walnut but its a massive tree and needs a big space . Peach trees are also easy to grow .I would keep the trees away from the wall as u do not want there roots growing close to that .And they should all have been staked with wooden stakes u still can just go buy some it help if a storm blows through .

      I hope they do well, we are planning to try and keep the walnut under control so it doesn't get too big there but I would like to plant another one somewhere else where there is more space for it to really grow

    Figs fruit best with their roots constricted I believe. Fantastic compost indeed! I was horticulturist before retirement. I bet you photographed many Royalty planting trees? 🌴

    Maybe next time if you want to mux the soil with tge compost, place the soil into the wheelbarrow.
