Choosing a sheltered spot for Maples is vital

As our Octobers become more windy, choosing a sheltered spot for maples is vital, writes Peter Dowdall.   

Ialways look forward to September in Ireland as it’s nearly always a month of guaranteed sunshine and fine weather, but not so during 2016.

No, September last year was a bit of a washout, but as a result we got to enjoy a beautiful autumn in October which extended right into November.
