AlpineK Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I know it isn't a super popular holiday with most people, but I thought I'd make note of the day. If you have the space and time go plant a tree. Here's some reading material I planted a mini version of this in my yard. It'll take a fey years to get this big.

Fairweather Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Just planted a Golden Chain. Hopefully, it will look like this someday: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dechristo Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I saw my neighbor, Onan, celebrating the same way casting seed out in fields. Maybe, that was Earth Day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattp Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Golden chain will do pretty well with minimal care, I expect. We cut a bunch of brush out of our yard, including a gold chain tree that was unable to support itself after we removed all the brush around it, so we took that down too. There were several sprouts the next year - from seed, I think. The golden chain had grown up amid a bunch of laurel and maple mixed with blackberries in a location where I doubt it had any kind of watering or care of any kind ever. I've seen some rather attractive ones around that I bet were heavily pruned as the trunk divided into several and the several divided again, making a complicated lacy looking tree unlike the beanstalk that we had.
