More growing things

Here are some pictures of our backyard. The burning bush was a volunteer in the front yard when Dan was 11. He dug it up and planted it in the back. The evergreen to its left was about 3 inches tall and growing under a tree when grandpa transplanted it. It is now about 10 feet high. The oak tree in the second picture planted itself and grew from an acorn. It is now a beautiful, big tree.
If you look at my posting from last summer with pictures of the house in which I grew up, you can see on the left of the front walk the trunk of an oak tree that started as a volunteer and that my father transplanted. He always called it "the little oak tree" but of course it is now a very big oak tree. You can't see the top in the pictures because it is so tall.
