After thunderstorms all morning.

Diary of the Plague Year: Day 90 13 June 2020: Transplanting
Rain. At last. Woken in the night.
Decided to transplant the cornus kousa, which has been looking more and more unhappy in the gale force winds lately, and replaced it with a cheap and cheerful dwarf cherry from the pound shop.
The cornus went into the orchard by the hedge and already is looking much happier. Time will tell. The cornus is billed as able to sustain wind but I don’t think these categories allow for the West Cork variety.
And managed to snap my spade in the process.
