New Tree For Backyard

Last year my son had to cut down what was left of the cherry tree that was in my back yard. After over the last 30 years parts of the tree have die and during one summer storm one side of the tree fell down. The tree split down the middle, I couldn’t believe it when I looked out the kitchen window and saw the tree.

Wildlife trees are one kind of trees I’m thing about replacing the cherry tree with. I’m thinking maybe a kind of nut tree. Now I just have to decide on what kind of nut tree to get. When I was young we had a hickey nut tree. I remember sitting in the back yard for hours eating the nuts.

This is what's left of the cherry tree. I heard cherry wood is good fire wood.
