At one of my customers, I came across this absolute beauty.
My customer had planted a SWEET CHESTNUT seed about 20 years ago, and this was the result. The tree has a slim trunk and stands about 30 feet tall. My, now elderly, customer saw several, in bloom along the road to BISLEY, Glos., as she walked to work from Stroud every day. She waited until the Autumn and the setting of the fruit, which she gathered, brought home and planted, so that she, and people like me, could admire it in perpetuity.
NOW THERE'S A WOMAN WITH AN EYE FOR BEAUTY AND THE FUTURE!
