Two from the rear garden .

The Horse chestnut was one of two that my partner and her children grew from conkers they picked up whilst out walking about 20 years ago .

The Christmas tree is one we bought as a rooted one about 7 years ago but we only planted it in the garden 5 years ago it spent a couple of years almost in shock then the last two years it's gone barmy with growth .

it's only ever been in a sub 9 inch pot and never been greatly looked after , in fact the second one died about 3 years ago as it got left in the new owners porch and never got watered

Ah. Seems you may be restricting it. Would be nice to free it but maybe you don't want it bringing the house down.

Yes to both .
But not sure we could just plant it out anyway as a lot are blighted with a bug and loads got chopped down a few years ago
