gardening corner
What kind of tree or flowering shrub can I put in a corner of my zone 5 garden?

I have a corner area in my garden, where two of six meters Wooden fences are. Currently, I have a small Japanese maple tree there that is growing so slowly that I can probably go to my great-grandchildren. I also have a bleeding heart and some astilbes beautiful. The song has some time as I have some beautiful trees in the rest of the yard. This space is about 4 "wide and sits a few hours of afternoon sun. My kitchen windows look over it so well that I would like an attractive shrub or small tree. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi! I'm in zone 5, too. A word of caution about the dwarf Crape Myrtle – I think they are cute, but I do not think they are hardy in our area, are they? You're in a bit of a connection you need something tall but something that will stay within your space of four meters. How about a Blue Muffin Viburnum? I want one of those so bad! In fact, many of Viburnums would work for you. If it is a place where you'd like a nice then go with a smell fragrant – they smell wonderful! Or how about a Variegated Weigela? They are 4-6 feet, too. If you want something louder, so I agree with the person who said try one of the taller ornamental grasses. They are so pretty, too! Good luck!

A History of the County of Stafford: Volume XX: Seisdon Hundred (Part)


A History of the County of Stafford: Volume XX: Seisdon Hundred (Part)


$50


The volume covers the south-west corner of Staffordshire, bordering on Shropshire and Worcestershire and including the Tettenhall and Amblecote portions of the new county of West Midlands. The area was part of Seisdon hundred and includes the village of Seisdon in Trysull parish where the hundred met. Most of it lay in Kinver forest. Stourton Castle in Kinver parish was built in the 1190s as a royal hunting lodge and became the home of the keeper of the forest. The area, watered by the Stour and its tributary Smestow brook, remains largely agricultural, with mixed farming and also market gardening for the nearby Black Country towns. There are three great houses, Enville Hall, Patshull House, and the Wodehouse at Wombourne, all at one time having fine gardens. By the 19th century business men working in Wolverhampton were coming to live in Tettenhall and Codsall, and in the 20th century Kinver, Pattingham, and Wombourne too have rapidly expanded as residential areas. By the late 18th century Tettenhall was the goal of excursions from Wolverhampton, and Kinver Edge has at-tracted visitors from the neighbouring towns for the past century. Rock houses cut into the sandstone of the Edge remained occupied until the mid 20th century. There were several early industries, notably ironworking along the rivers. Kinver had a flourishing iron industry from the 17th to the 19th century, and clothworking too was important there in the 17th and 18th centuries. There was an iron industry in Wombourne from the 16th century until the closure of Richard Thomas & Baldwin Ltd.’s Swindon works in 1976. At Amblecote glassmaking has been important since the early 17th century when Lorrainer glassmakers were attracted there by cheap coal and excellent fireclay.
