Dropped by the cottage last weekend to install the 'new' washing machine and clean between guests, of course after the Shoemakers (name changed for privacy considerations) there wasn't anything to do except wash the linens and towels! I decided also to inspect the transplanted Norway Maple, keeping my fingers crossed that it survived its bare root transplant from Tavistock. Lo and behold, although all but a dozen leaves had died and dropped, it was sporting at least twenty or thirty new buds! Wonderful news, as I am confident it will survive the winter, and bud again next spring.
