These cheery trees were planted in Leabank Square - just behind their re-cycling bins a few weeks ago - and already they're starting to bud & blossom!!!
Lets face it - some of hackney council's re-cycling bins look a bit boring - so some of us decided to bring a bit of shade & colour to them over the next few years!
If anyone else is interested in planting some fruit trees soon - we bought these from Lidl in Well Street (just before Mare Street) - and got them down on the bus the 5 stops back to Hackney Wick.
Lidl has a range of fruit trees (& loads of seeds & bulbs) - from different apple varieties, pears - & of course - these cherry trees. The trees all cost only £3.99 each!!!!
I promise I don't work for Lidl - but I swear they are one of the cheapest gardening shops around!!
Are there any more recycling bin areas around Hackney Wick that could do with some brightening up?
