Yesterday Ozil went to the garden centre to buy a few things, including a bay tree and a new plant. Today Edward did some planting.
First he planted the bay tree. As baboons we wanted to climb and we got a variety of opinions about whether it was suitable for climbing. An orangutan opinion was taken, as they are more habitual climbers even than we baboons are. Joey says no, not yet, its not big enough!!
The lions were more interested in how useful it might be for shade, than climbing. They also found it was not ready for that yet.
Next Edward planted the nice yellow plant that Ozil chose. We liked that, just because it looks nice.
The lions could see that it was never going to provide much shade, but Lawrence decided it was shady enough for a little chap like him.
Next year the bay tree may be climbable and shady, this year we will have to look after it and the plant to help them to grow strong.
