An Educational lesson for Grandson Ewan – A growing Success.
Autumn is nearly over. The Acorn that Grandson Ewan planted 7 years ago (may be 8) has thrived. A tiny pot, then a succession of increasingly larger pots. What is it they say “from little Acorns great Oaks grow.”… well it not a great Oak yet…. but maybe next year is the time to loose the pot and plant in the ground. Meantime I am enjoying the multi-colour of this year’s leaves. As for Acorns, if you wish to emulate Ewan’s growing success, you might have a hard search for Acorns… they seem in short supply this year
Just shows that one should takes care of the little things in life … and….
Please Remember ….
Stay Safe …. Be Kind…. Look After Each Other

I, too, have an oak in a pot. It’s been very satisfying watching the progress.

Ewan planted a conker too… both doing well. I.think the Chestnut has to be transfered to the ground…maybe the Oak can manage another year, as you say

What a wonderful thing to do. I need to do this with my grandchildren. We don’t have oak trees in our yard but in the place I walk weekly, there are a lot of acorns. Time to gather some up.
