It's Poplar time at GMS

Day 2 of the Greeeeat potting and we're back at Great Marlow School with Sean Wilson and all the Year 7's. Before we started there was a mad dash back home to collect lots of extra pots as we were worried that there wood'nt be enough but we didn't need to worry as everyone brought theirs. Last year we did Beech but this year we went for Black Poplar, the rarest native British Tree. A busy but brilliant morning with nearly 250 Poplar plugs potted up. The trees were really useful in past times as their wood was extremely flexible and used to make cart wheels.....maybe their time will come again!
