Much as I love them, I feel that they have got too big for my little garden. More to the point, they cast too much shade on my raised beds. Because of this, they are being re-located to my daughter's house, in nearby Wokingham.
I can't remember exactly when I started off these trees, but it must have been fairly soon after we moved into this property, which was in 1991. They were cuttings from a tree we brought with us from our previous house. I wish now that I had started them both at the same time, so that they would be an evenly-matched pair, but I didn't think of that then, and one must be a couple of years older than the other - hence slightly larger.
I already have this little tree waiting for its place in the limelight. It is three years old now.
I think it's time this one went into a bigger pot, which will encourage it to fill out into a bigger tree.
If you are interested in how to grow a Bay tree from a cutting, I described that procedure HERE.
P.S. (Nothing to do with Bay trees). Yesterday I harvested the first of this year's Radishes:-
These are "French Breakfast".
