Andy, I planted a mix of mainly native trees, native apple,alder,oak,birch,chestnut,mountain ash,sycamore,Scot's pine,walnut,wild cherry,wild pear,westrn red cedar. The alder and are doing really well so far. I had a visit from really knowledgeable DEFRA policy guys back in June and they suggested I remove some side branches from trees that could be future saw logs. Pruning while young produces a more valuable knot free log apparently. Leaving no side branches to restrict machinery and the field is still farmable.
Nice. What tree did you plant?
