We are getting a tree! A Daybreak Cherry tree, to be exact. It is a deciduous tree and has pretty white or pink flowers in the springtime. I think it will look nice in front of our house.
We are getting a tree through the Friends of the Urban Forest project, which includes a subsidy through the city for a portion of the tree costs. The trees will all be planted on October 16th by a bunch of neighborhood volunteers. Unfortunately, we will already be out of town by then and won't be able to participate in the planting.
We are putting the tree in the strip of earth near the driveway. There was previously a tree there, and Sushant and Dad supervised the stump removal on Tuesday morning.
Here is the hole. It reminds me of my wisdom teeth sockets!
The fungus that was breaking down the old stump.
