Thanks guys, I hope they're alright. The soil can get quite wet in heavy rain, and it's probably quite acidic due to the leylandii that were there before, though I've removed about 10 barrows full of chippings, and put in 7 bags of compost or composted bark.
They were really surprisingly heavy and hard to manoeuvre, and the tree ties I've bought are too short so I have to hope there are no strong winds between now and their arrival.
