The Montmorancy cherry tree planted will now get full morning sun and feed the bird/squirrels. A 'feels good man' day. Filled up a couple bins and will probably be done with another compost pickup or two.
A tip-get some Tordol, and coat the top of the stump with it. Alicanthus will shoot up a gazillion little hardy trees from the roots after being cut if you don't. Tordol will be absorbed and kill it off. Tractor Supply usually stocks it.
