Hi, I am just wondering if anyone has any tips or advice (or if its even possible) for laying gravel around trees as we have an apple and a pear tree in our garden. Cheers Phishcakes

No problem, put down your weedproof membrane round the tree and put down the gravel, you can go right up to the trunk with both. Most plants actually do better in these conditions.
