We've had 57 sticks off ours now, but it is well established. You'll reap the benefits if you cna bear to leave it alone!

DD - I think you were right before you altered the latin expression  

[DD.]

I know is was. 

[Growster...]

OK, Fine !

Mrs Growster said she wanted some tomorrow (which is a pleasant suggestion), but I said, No, we ask DD first!

What a pickle to be in on a Saturday Night fergodsake...!!!

[DD.]

It is a very vigorous variety, I wish I knew what it was! If it's doing that well, it may be worth letting Mrs G have a couple of sticks to keep her happy.

I'm not sure about the way this conversation's going!

I had to chop some flowers off ours today, it's that way ahead.

[Growster...]

It seems hellish vigourous DD!

We really think it needs a bit of a 'seeing to', but only for a couple of sticks!

When  Mrs G wakes up, I'll tell her the good news!

If she stays slumbering, we'll discuss the Sunday 'crumble' tomorrow!

I may not hold my breath...

[DD.]

You should be OK - as I recall it wasn't a particularly small crown was it? 

[Growster...]

You should be OK - as I recall it wasn't a particularly small crown was it? 

It nearly filled a shoe box DD - a size 20 shoe box...!

It started almost immediately, so I'll have another look at it this morning!

[DD.]

It doesn't really go dormant over winter - despite the frosts we should really be posting about! 

As I recall, it was a shoe box, but no one in this family is a size 20!
