The oak list so far

-

 


Here is my list of acorns I've got sent this year so far from the Paramili-Tree SAS branch ( Special Acorn Service)

Allerton Oak
Magog Oak
Queen Elizabeth I Oak
Marton Oak
Old Man Calke Oak
Panshanger Great Oak
Crouch Oak
Druid Oak
Majesty Oak
Old Knobbley Oak
Brian Boru Oak
Birnam Oak
Domesday Oak
Darley Oak
Fingeringhoe Oak
Ufton Oak

Thats 16 different acorn packages sent to me this year so far. Still a few more on the way so will keep you updated.

And below is a list of oak trees I've already had growing for the past few years.

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

I have some doubles and triples of each one, thats my plan as I want to keep a few spur for replacements in case any dont make it.

So if all the acorns germinate this year that'll be 29 oak trees grown from 29 of the oldest and most iconic trees in the UK and Ireland. I have 8 more to collect to make up the 37 for the spiritual spiral oak grove I'm creating.

This is a pic also of all our 1000 Heritage Irish apple trees we've been propagating for the past year that are getting planted in the field next to the spiral. There is already 300 planted and we are planting another 200 this year making an Irish orchard with 500 apple trees.

What I love about this whole mission is it all been helped and supported by The Phantom Planters. All the funded thats made all this happen has come from my wheeling and dealing and from you guys when I put teh begging bowl out. Way back at the start of my phantom planting all the trees I planted were paid for by money I used to spend on drink and drugs. Then as time went on and it got so big I had to put the begging bowl out.
No corporations, advertising companies or government funding bodies has had anything to do with how this has all grown. I've had plenty of offers over the years for grants and promotional stuff but it's not my think. I know what way these things go when you start taking money from big companies and governments. They then think they own you. I cant even be annoyed with interviews or documentaries, I get asked this a lot, did a few in the past but its not my thing either. Best letting them all slide on.

This is a grassroots movement and always will be....

  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 ...

Onlyfans definitely gets some attention!

 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...
