At least they come out easily if you catch them early

They grow into 100 foot trees with a huge circumference @latebloomer

There's already quite a large one at the bottom of the garden, conkers everywhere and at least a dozen seedlings coming up in the border! I'm wondering if I could transplant them and offer them to an arboretum though we've lost so many to bacterial canker in recent years. #seedlings #conkers #regeneration

Oh no, I have a similar problem - can't remember what the tree name is but always pulling out saplings! 😕 I think it might be an Ash... @tash74
