Usefull short lists but the tree suggestions are too big for most modern gardens in UK. (30 feet high by 2 feet wide is fine, but 20 feet high by 20 feet wide is too big). Try to only plant for the eventual height and width, unless you are planting for topiary or hedging. You can always put groundcover perennials in between these trees/shrubs which can then be overgrown by those trees/shrubs.

Ivydene Horticultural Services	Slavery Education of Girls in UK This is an actual extract from a sex education school textbook for girls, printed in the early 60's in the UK.... "When retiring to the bedroom, prepare yourself for bed as promptly as possible. Whilst femine hygiene is of the utmost importance, your tired husband does not want to queue for the bathroom, as he would have to do for his train. But remember to look your best when going to bed. Try to achieve a look that is welcoming without being obvious. If you need to apply face-cream or hair-rollers wait until he is asleep as this can be shocking to a man last thing at night. When it comes to the possibility of intimate relations with your husband it is important to remember your marriage vows and in particular your commitment to obey him (it would have been a great idea if at the correct place, commas or semi-colons had been inserted in this text for correct grammar usage). If he feels that he needs to sleep immediately then so be it. In all things be led by your husband's wishes; do not pressure him in any way to stimulate intimacy. Should your husband suggest congress then agree humbly all the while being mindful that a man's satisfaction is more important than a woman's. When he reaches his moment of fulfilment a small moan from yourself is encouraging to him and quite sufficient to indicate any enjoyment that you may have had. Should your husband suggest any of the more unusual practices be obedient and uncomplaining but register any reluctance by remaining silent. It is likely that your husband will then fall promptly asleep so adjust your clothing, freshen up and apply your night-time face and hair-care products. You may then set the alarm so that you can arise shortly before him in the morning. This will enable you to have his morning cup of tea ready when he awakes."
