A number of years from now....people will be looking at the giant redwoods
I've planted in some of my coniferous woodland & will be wondering.

V. Impressive trees given they are only 10-15 years old. Cone shaped trunk,
squishy bark & they grow like heck.

200 years from now...given I have planted some on top of the Rigg....they
should be visible from Malton some 20 or so miles away 


& I put in some semper virens...for that feeling of permanence
