Garden 2012

I have a serviceberry tree on the parking strip out front. It was planted a couple years ago, it's about seven feet tall and the trunk at the widest is about an inch in diameter. It's very slender. I went out this morning to take the stake away. I cut the two ties and lifted the stake out... only to find it rotted away at the base. It was less a stake than it was a splint. The serviceberry's standing free now, regardless.
