    My step mum sent me an email about this today. Velvet toilet tissue are giving away a free tree if you claim for one. There is a choice of three, and this is the link

    Hope some of you find this helpful :)

    We should start a tree comparison thread when they arrive. I bet mine is the one that looks like it's been run over! :hehe:

    VP I bought a patio Apricot in the Spring from T&M and it arrived very, very badly damaged. They refunded me but I persevered with the small tree and it survived. It is now rewarding me with 7 .......... peaches ! So even if yours arrives 'run over' do not give up, your Rowan might turn out to be a beautiful Silver Birch :hehe:

    Probably!!! Hee hee. Good on you for giving the peach tree some intensive care!

    I think it is a really great idea for a company who use trees, to give some away for people to plant.

    I wonder how long a rowan will take to reach 8 foot?!
