Exactly 11 days after our large old maple was chopped down from our front yard, we planted a new red maple to take its place.
I didn't want to waste any time. Our yard has looked so empty since the former disappeared. Even though we won't get the full benefits of the shade and height of its replacement for many years, I couldn't bare to see such a large empty space for long.
We planted a Matador maple on Sunday, which already stands taller than we do. It's on the opposite side of our yard, so it will change the entire look of our space. One of its key features is long-lasting red, red leaves in the fall, so I'm looking forward to having something to look forward to as the weather grows colder!
