The first house I had when I was pregnant with my son had a pomagne tree in the back garden, which was one of the original trees from the drink Pomagne that originated in Worcester. I rather liked that I hope it is still there. We used to eat the apples off it.
I recently planted a magnolia tree at the bottom of my garden in memory of my Aunty. It's little buds are growing, but it just looks like a long stick at the moment. I can't wait for it's first bloom.
