A banana tree has been planted in the parish garden at the Church of Christ the Eternal High Priest in Gidea Park. Robert, Alan and Gwen made sure it was properly planted and given plenty of mulch. It is hoped that with tender loving care and a few layers it will survive the winter. It was a gift to Fr Adrian’s brother. Fr Adrian said: ‘We are very grateful for this great addition to the plants in the garden. The large leaves remind me of the story of the garden of Eden. Who knows, it may even bear fruit!’
