My plumb tree was so full three branches snapped ..... Apparently trees dropping branch,s is also how they have coped with the hot dry weather mate lots of non fruit bearing trees also losing limbs, sacrifice a few branch,s to conserve water and save the main trunk, but your right Autumn is moving on at a pace, even the squirrels were harvesting Hazel nuts each morning in the trees behind the lakes in Devon the other week 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
downsouth 6,817 Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 How much are the worth.There is a load of trees packed with them behind the Gas site that im working on this week and the only way to get to them is through the panic gate at the back of the site.I was only saying to my boss and workmate today that i wasn't sure when you was meant to pick them.
