I loved the seeds as a kid, but now that they self seed all over my garden I rather loathe them, they are so very efficient, germinating just about anywhere... I notice that Greg remarked on how difficult sycamores are to kill off. There is a tree stump on the way to "my" tree, and this time round I noticed it was sprouting. And yes, its a sycamore!Janet/Plantaliscioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15605580157193047780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083229388630903702.post-72399695902945072772015-10-12T06:54:41.434+01:002015-10-12T06:54:41.434+01:00That is my kind of scientific research Lucy, eatin...That is my kind of scientific research Lucy, eating blackberries!Brian Skeyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04761762507159759619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083229388630903702.post-62928644081134722972015-10-02T20:38:44.539+01:002015-10-02T20:38:44.539+01:00I really like your idea of following the progress ...I really like your idea of following the progress of one particular tree and especially the way you talk about keeping track of one particular seed. Sycamore seeds are wonderful things and although the trees they grow into are not always appreciated they are great survivors (a neighbour of mine has been trying to kill<br />one in his garden for the last ten years without success). greg beckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13655926301284639029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083229388630903702.post-36135335042637413252015-10-02T19:53:39.887+01:002015-10-02T19:53:39.887+01:00I confess I'm not overfond of sycamores:) I ha...I confess I'm not overfond of sycamores:) I have one at the bottom of my garden and this year especially there were hundreds of seedlings in the grass and all the flower beds and I still have a small forest of them to clear in the woodland area.
