Free: Sycamore Trees young and well rooted ready to plant up.. (Kingsmead) Gifted Self seeded, vigourous healthy seedlings/very young saplings needing space and a garden/field/hedge or freedom now to put down permanent roots. please say how many you would like in your reply. Did you know? The wood of sycamore was commonly used to make kitchen items and toys, and was also the main choice for Welsh love spoons - traditional carved gifts. In times past, a young man would carve the spoon for his love and, if she accepted it, they could begin to court. Today, these spoons are often given as wedding presents. The symbols on love spoons convey different messages, for example, a horseshoe represents luck, a cross is for faith and a dragon offers protection.
