This is going to be mighty!

 Got the first batch of acorns received through the post from the Marton Oak in Cheshire. 

The Marton oak is believed to be 1200-1400 years old and has a girth of over 14 metres. It is on the list of the 50 Great British trees. 


Thank you to the person who went to the effort of getting these and posting me them. 

Your now an official member of the Paramili-Trees SAS branch (Special Acorn Service). 


These acorns were found lying around the tree and could have been a windfall drop so may not be viable for germinating. But it's always worth a try and see how they go as I've did the float test on them in a jug of water and some of them sunk which means they are good. 

The person who got these is going to go back for me again over the coming months to get some from the next drop. 

Appreciate all this that you've did for me, you know who you are. Thank you so much. 


A fine edition to my oak collection having this ancient oak trees acorns. 


And thank you to the special dog who helped out on this mission too, 

Wee betty salutes you! 


This is the start of my acorn mission for this year. I want acorns from all the oak trees on the list of 50 Great British trees. 

And many more that are special to me from around the Emerald Isle. 


Many more people are out around the country inspecting iconic oak trees for me now and reporting back on the acorns progress. 

Honestly, over the past many years that I've been doing this I cant believe the response on this. 


All my oak collection are getting planting up in an oak grove museum this year. Preserving the genetics and linage of all these King trees!


This is something we all need to do is get out and collect seeds from our ancient trees, grow them up and phantom plant them. 


Be part of something mighty! 


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...
