    Well after several emails and phone calls between myself and the owner of a local arboretum; where I offered my tree for a safe home, it has now been collected by the grateful owner who specialises in rare and unusual trees and shrubs.

    He has just sent me an email and picture of the Pine (which I grew from seed) now planted in his grove of Giant Redwoods, so I am very happy that it has found a 'safe' home where it can be enjoyed.

    The owner was also kind enough to give me a couple of 1 year passes for his arboretum and offered to give me a personal tour when I manage to visit - Happy Days...
