33 ancient masters at our spiral

-

 Was working flat out at our oak spiral all day yesterday getting the acorns planted up and building guards around them all. 

We now have 33 different types of famous oaks here at our spiral, unreal!


The gales coming across the hills yesterday while planting was epic. It really made my day being out in it just me and nature. Was pretty Shamanic. 


All of the most recent batches of acorns sent to me autumn past by The Paramili-Tree SAS Branch ( Special Acorn Service) have all germinated. 

Cant believe how many different iconic oaks we have from all corners of the UK and Ireland. We must have the largest collection of ancient oak genetics on these islands all planted up in a spiritual spiral formation at our Lisnabreeny Community Orchard.

I will update my list today with all the names of the famous oaks we have and keep yous posted. 


Cant wait to get this all done and dusted and take myself on holiday. Honestly guys I've taken on too much this planting season. A lesson learned though, I over estimated my ambitious plans, but I got it all done though which is the important thing. After I get all the oaks sorted I have 200 heritage Irish apple trees to graft then thats me done for a bit. Time to sit back and watch it all grow. Although there will be plenty of maintenance work to do but no pressure to get things done like planting, grafting and acorn sowing. As this type of work is seasonal and it did put me under a bit of pressure getting it all done in a certain timeframe window.


Must be over a thousand trees I've planted in the past few months. All this work guys has been at the sacrifice of my day job. All my energy has been going into the trees and my wee business has been left neglected and its taken its toll a bit on me financially.

Feel free guys to support our work below.

Pic is from the family who collected and sent me acorns from the Birnam Oak in Scotland. These acorns germinated well and are now in our spiral guys. Thank you! I've climbed the Birnam Oak BTW. What a beauty she is. Best Scots pies just up the road too!

  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...
