I'd second that, I've seen a few good courtyard Catalpa. Bench round the
bottom for those sweltering days. Ice cold cloudy lemonade, bees lazily
undulating past, branch failing at weak fork due to dead terminal bud,
cracking your skull, spilling your drink and causing the bee to sting your
nose in fright.

Catalpa? Beautiful one at Leeds Castle in a courtyard (or there was when I
was last there)

How about a Liriodendron tulipifera? Depends on how much space you have
got.

Dear All
Rupert Baker advised me to look up this forum towards the end of last year
when I asked his advice about research into planting trees/air quality.
Thanks to him and you, I have been able to use your collective wisdom - past
and present - to help me deal with a local council environment officer who
thought that, 'planting trees could be 'novel' approach to improving air
quality'. Argued at length with a planning officer who stated that 'trees is
trees and planning is planning' presumably because she felt that neither the
twain should meet! I have also been able to effect a positive
identification of several fungi which has helped with a restoration project
in a 5 acre garden and you have also got me thinking real hard about which
trees/shrubs I should be responsibly advising a client to plant in a town
centre development. In particular, the client has asked me to come up with
ideas for a single tree to be planted in a large open courtyard - visible to
both passersby and the residents of the flats which face into it.
So, this is a thank you for this forum from a design and landscape bod wot
does know 'er trees and a veiled request for any 'single' tree ideas for the
above town project - I have read most of what you lot have to say on the
subject of urban tree planting and am close to a state of thought paralysis
trying to weigh up the pros and cons of individual species!
Any thoughts would be most welcome
Cheers, Bernadette Noble
