Kev, over at http://www.englishhomestead.com/ has done this loads of times and somewhere on his blog you will find details of how to do it. I managed to do this myself a couple of years ago with a very late fruiting apple tree that was in a hedgerow and to my amazement it actually worked! The following year the hedge was cut and the apple tree disappeared so I was glad I did.Sue Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16463317651625459406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-29284570512205741122017-11-10T12:07:41.373+00:002017-11-10T12:07:41.373+00:00The Spotted Lantern bug just came in our area this...The Spotted Lantern bug just came in our area this summer. It decimates fruit trees and grape vines. One week you see a few and in very quick time, thousands are swarming around. Right now there is nothing that can stop them. If they don’t come up with something soon, our local apple orchards and wine businesses will be hit very badly. This bug comes from Asia.Starting Over, Accepting Changes - Maybehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032033918798053005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-32176838444224401472017-11-10T09:44:05.937+00:002017-11-10T09:44:05.937+00:00Night time, heavy facial camouflage, and a lamp.
