 You can plant trees anytime of year!


When I post about planting fruit trees in midsummer I see so many comments from people saying I'm wasting my time or winter is the time to plant trees. One dude commented saying I don't know what I'm doing and when I looked at his profile he was standing planting a tree and many of his posts were all tree related. Obviously a text book tree planter. 


Well guys, I've news for you all, over the past 10 years I've planted thousands of potted fruit trees in midsummer with about a 99% success rate. And you know what my secret is? Water them. So simple. 


I dont know what half these so called experts think sometimes. 


The first tree I ever planted was this one in the pic. I remember a guy from the National Trust said at the time it will die as it was not the right time of year to be planting. 

I knew nothing about planting trees back then but my intuition was telling me not to believe this National Trust tree planter. 


I went ahead anyway and watered my tree every week without fail. I really enjoy going back to water the trees and observing how they are. 


Every year this tree never fails to produce apples. 


Ps Pic is from about 4 years ago. Its twice the size now. 


Peace and love

  A bit about me and how I became the phantom planter. I grew up in a Loyalist housing estate in Belfast, my father a Protestant and my mother was a Catholic from Ardyone, that had big complications here in Northern Ireland but I always knew I was a mongrel, a bit different! My dad was a delboy ( a buyer and seller of everything and anything) and from I could walk he had me a mini Delboy, from selling round the doors to off loading lorry loads of bootlegged cigs and booze straight in from Andorra, he had me street trading and playing part in his delboy tricks to help him sell his dodgy goods! I learned fast how to make money and school for me was my business, I had more money than the teachers, my dad would have stocked my bag up at lunchtimes for me with more of his dodgy goods, perfume, tobacco, clothing, all sorts I had in my bag, even sold some of my goods to the teachers! When I left school I was financially embarrassed for a small time, 1000 pupils to me was 1000 people with ...

 From I've been saying that I'm on Onlyfans I've a lost a few hundred followers on my main phantom planter Facebook page. And the posts on it have a attracted many negative comments from people who seemed to know alot about life story and phantom planting antics, these are people that have been reading all my previous posts in depth and have never commented once before as I do read nearly all the comments and show my gratitude and if its a negative comment I just give them a hug. But it just shows you how many people are reading your posts with venom, just waiting until you put a foot wrong then give off. Then they announce they're departure commenting "Unfollowed." Look guys I'm really not going to lose any sleep over it and its certainly not going to distract me from my mission and soul purpose. I very rarely give my attention to negative comments on here or even get in a debate with. I would much rather give my energy and attention to people who are sup...
