Until I moved up here I had never really appreciated the sycamore tree. Bane of gardeners and riddled with disease down south, up here is one of the few trees which will grow to any height. They grow all twisted up here due to the harsh winds and look more like old goat willow, but the buds in may are very pretty and it is time to give them their due as Orkney winter survivors.
