My oak collection
Was giving my oak tree collection a good tidy up and water last night and they are all looking amazing!
All these oak trees I have in pots are grown from acorns collected of these famous parent oak trees below.
Bowthorpe Oak
Brian Boru Oak
Blenheim Oak numbered 4012 C.1090
Knighthood Oak
Major Oak aka Robin Hood Oak
Remedy Oak
Old Knobbly Oak
Parliament Oak
Big Belly Oak
Clachan Oak
Brimmon Oak
Capon Oak
Ketts Oak
King Oak Blenheim
Belvoir Oak
Still many more on my list that I intend to get in the coming years, then I'm planting them all up in a oak grove museum that will carry on the message of phantom planting for a thousand years to come.
Never did I think 20 years ago when I was up to my neck wheeling and dealing all sorts of dodgy goods that I would have this love for trees.
20 years ago I was aiming to be a millionaire, these days I would rather be a Treelionaire! Rich in trees, rich in friends and rich in love.
You dont get any of that playing the monopoly board or partaking in underworld activities.
"Directing 40 footers through estate winding streets
was one of my many childhood chores
Open the door it was ciggies and more
Andorra had just become the new bank offshore
Gangsters on forklifts having the odd nervous fit
Hoods loading vans i'm sure got on the neighbours tits
but they kept their wit as most were in on it
Counting money galore was another one of my chore
Mill after Mill my thumbs did get sore
We run out of room on my Ma's wee floor.
I've got a bit of history as you can probably see
if I were unmasked I may not complete my task
as people from my past may not let me be
planting trees is not their cup of tea
hidden agendas is what they will see
stashes of millions is what they think of me
bullets, bombs and bast**ds forced me to flea
now I've found Buddha I'm growing young and free
my love and compassion is branching out like a tree"...
I grew up with gangsters and crooks and then I became one myself. Then I came across the Buddhas teachings and didn't just blind believe what he was saying. I experienced it. Karma is real guys. You can never escape your own actions in this life.
36k I stole once. Never forget it. Within the next couple of months I got robbed on 3 separate occasions for 12k each. Only people got kidnapped, hurt and locked up. It was mayhem. That smirk on my face after thinking I was getting away with 36k was well and truly wiped.
We are only fooling ourselves guys when we live immoral and untruthful.
When a man's good deeds overcome his bad joy will follow him like a shadow that never leaves.
Generosity and selfless service is the key out of the darker realms of existence.
No devil or god put me in the darker realms. I did a good enough job of bringing that about myself.
Peace and love
The Phantom Planter
