That Scots Gaelic has fewer dialects than Irish Gaelic intrigues me. Is it because Scots Gaelic is spoken by fewer people and in fewer regions of Scotland?

Your answer Oct 13, 2019, three comment boxes down, employs the plural form, greenhouses, for Medwyn Williams.

Is there more than one greenhouse on one site or is there more than one Medwyin-Williams greenhouse site?

The Arborist News article encourages arborists and land managers to add new organic material as the dead-wood habitat and retention pile gets unaesthetic and unsafe. It features nothing about the disposal, such as by burning or composting.

Your answer Oct 9, 2019, indicates that "We don't have a shredder, so wood prunings are either burnt for ash or put in the compost heap. I compost grass clippings and am constructing a leaf mould bin to contain fallen leaves."

What might the ashes from burning wood prunings be used for?

What is the reason for making silverweed the "seventh" bread?

Some Unitedstatesians associate ash-tree resistance with astute pruning and sanitation and without fungicidal applications. They cite elm-tree disease reversions from the repeated wounding that fungicide applications cause.

There is discussion of this, but Scots Gaelic has fewer dIialects and there is more Norse in Scotland than in Ireland

Its meaning comes from the observation that the spouts of water at the time of tidal water collision look like dancers,
