Thank you, Insert. I think it is the young elms we see now, in hedgrows. I think the bark has to be a certain thickness for the beetle to get in and cause trouble, so there are a lot of fairly short elms around especially in hedges, certainly in...

I've been working on a poem from the same idea, Graham, but not copying!

Posted on Mon, 04 Feb 2019
