The lady who lives opposite us has a very interesting tree, about 30
foot high and has fruits on it that look like blackberries, anyone any
clues? Could take photos if necissary.

Actually her garden is very interesting, very large, she has just left
as about 95 years old and can't live in a 7 bedroom house any more on
her own. loads of rare plant varieties, but all overgrown and in need
of TLC. I do hope someone appreciates what is in her garden when they
buy the house.

Whereabouts?


Thornton-le-Dale North Yorkshire. The place is very neglected, the
greenhouse still full of orchids which have miraculously survived. The
Magnolia blew down last year - goodness knows how it ever grew on our
lime soil, whole place covered in groundelder, but a dream. We went to
look at buying the house, but too big for us, and too much restoration
work required. anyway just found out today its back on the market at
£50,000 less, so don't know why?
