The planting
After many hours of planning, listening to all the
different ideas and sketching, keen Kat Rivier Kai
members met at Lampie’s house in Sedgefield on heri-
tage day the 24th of September 2016.
First we had to select the individual trees. Being
spoilt for choice is a luxury, but that can complicate
the selection process! The seven main trees were
selected according to trunk diameter, trunk height
and position of primary branches. One of the trees
in the Baines group was pushed over (by a grumpy
elephant?) many years before he painted them in 1862.
