I should have mentioned that we ...Thanks Everyone! I should have mentioned that we have already planted some indigenous trees. Now that the camphors are out of the way, they will flourish!<BR/>Estelle - The Feller Fella is back up the next tree this morning. Seems to thrive on heights!<BR/>Kendalee - I am sure I must have passed your brother some time. My husband's parents moved to Ballito in 1981, so we have been holidaying or weekending there for years!<BR/>Anairam - I love your vegetational xenophobia angle!!!Denise Kigganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09052704511710456758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7567045301821083421.post-77806375221445956312009-04-07T07:50:00.000+02:002009-04-07T07:50:00.000+02:00Oh, my brother lives in Ballito...

It's always a little sad when trees have to go - although good for the ones that are saved as a result. As an alien in a foreign land, I think I relate to their plight! ;o) Are you going to replace them with some indigenous varieties?kendaleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10085858988070461010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7567045301821083421.post-63612220480719405362009-04-06T15:17:00.000+02:002009-04-06T15:17:00.000+02:00A magnificent garden!

I tried to convince L'Usband once that getting rid of some pine trees (which was an issue a few years ago in Cape Town) was a vegetational form of xenophobia, but I think I lost that argument!Anairamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08626269831496499230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7567045301821083421.post-84600173960197082672009-04-06T11:59:00.000+02:002009-04-06T11:59:00.000+02:00What beautiful photos of such beautiful surroundin...What beautiful photos of such beautiful surroundings!
