LIST OF TREES I WANT

A definitive list of trees and plants I want in my backyard when I grow old:

• pear tree
• peach tree
• lemon tree
• feijoa tree
• avocado tree
• hazelnut, almond, pistachio, macademia trees
• chestnut tree
• red grapefruit tree
• mandarin tree
• persimmon tree
• olive tree
• magnolia tree (this is not a food tree. Just for looking)
• golden ash tree (also for just for looking)
• black poui tree (also for looking)
• lavendar plant (for smelling and looking)
• maybe a rose bush, but not sure. They are a bit too mainstream.
• if possible, a watermelon plant

I'll probably have to live on some orchard when I am an old lady. That would work out well actually – because then I would be able to finally have miniature pigs as pets. They are so cute!

And if, by any chance I die young, I would like to be buried next to one of the non-food trees on this list. Or under an olive tree would be okay. But there would have to be a warning placed on the tree letting people know that there is a person buried under it. Oh, and under a pohutukawa tree would be good too, since it is illegal to cut down pohutukawa trees in NZ.


**Update**
I think being buried under a fruit tree will work out quite well actually. I will get lots of visits from birds.
