Those taller trees on the back fence are crepe myrtles. Thanks for asking!

This or that: Orange tree or lemon tree?

Lemon for me. I decided on a lemon for my patio because I thought that even if the fruits turned out unattractive they would still have every day culinary use and they did. Quince and lemon marmalade to die for. If you are restricted for space or climate go lemon.

I wouldn't have put a lawn in. You can see how it goes, but they require a lot of mowing and it sounds like you don't get a lot of sun so it may well end up very mossy and wet most of the time. See how it goes but maybe you need the deck to be sited on the left, so it is in the sun in the middle of the day/evening if possible, so not near the house if it faces east. Evergreen climbers are essential for small gardens with fences. Trachelospermum jasminoides, has lovely scented flowers in the summer and Hydrangea seemannii and Pileostegia Viburnoides are good in shade. I would put in a lot of planting on the shady side of the garden, a good evergreen grass for clay is Carex pendula. I would also plant an Amelanchier or Acer at the far end to screen the neighbours windows and autumn colour. You could look up evergreen ground covers for shade. Good luck!

A better photo would be helpful, all I can see is 1 yellow leaf amongst a bunch of healthy looking ones, leaves do get shed by any deciduous tree - this is what scab looks like: Personally I'd keep it, you can spray it which would help but you're probably not going to eat the fruit anyway unless you're intent on making crabapple jelly? I have an old Bramley apple tree in my garden, it's completely rubbish, covered in canker but it still has blossom, the apples are still edible & it allows me to grow climbing plants up it so it serves a purpose for me. Taking a tree out of a garden really needs thought as it will totally change the space & as you say, shade is really welcome (unless it's a Leylandii tree, in which case it should be torn out & burnt, possibly with celebratory dancing round the fire...)

Real or Fake? What type of Christmas tree do you have?
Q

We have one of each. The real on goes in the sitting room and is carefully decorated, all colour coordinated, and meticulously done by the wife. In the conservatory we have the fake one which is decorated by the kids - so it looks like a tinsel factory has exploded, baubles of all shapes/sizes/colours randomly bunched everywhere, flashing lights, tacky beads/bells. You can only make out a tiny bit of green tree under all the stuff (I absolutely love it, it's got so much character, but I'll still go in there any tidy it up a bit when the kids are in bed as most of it is only 'decorated' up to my waist height, so I do move some of it to the top 1/2 of the tree. Got to love the smell of a real tree as well
