Well, sheep have mashed their ahole heads in and chewed them. Gawd, I hate them more every year...Will redo fencing to be much further away.

So sorry that is so frustrating with all the work and plans for tree. I totally get it my horses chewed down 6 trees over night a couple years ago. They were white paper birch trees. Love the mossy bark that grows on the pealing bark and great to collect for covering gifts and wall hamgings. The up side less 6 trees means less leaves to mulch in the fall. In this case it eventually worked out.

Pawpaws on the slope. Update.
One was eaten to the ground by rabbits. Rest look okay.
3 were planted.
2 are left to fence in and plant.

I'm probably going to redo their fencing. Currently, it's a triangle for each tree. Will redo it to be one huge rectangle enclosing them all.
Why? Easier to mow and I'll have many tposts to reuse elsewhere!

Got the new roll around all of the trees.
I'm now remembering I was saving the 3 spots for seeds...🤦🏽‍♀️ Oh well.
Moved the old rings of fence. Gotta remove excess tposts.
