Default Happlenut tree...


It's amazing what you can miss....

Pottering around 'the grounds' this morning, I passed by the old
Bramley apple tree at the bottom of the garden and noticed that
growing out of the trunk, about three feet up, was a hazelnut tree.
Not only that, but the hazel was a good two inches in diameter, and
stood some six feet tall.

Admittedly that part of the apple tree's trunk is obscured by a
largish elder tree, but even so I would have thought I'd have spotted
it before. Must have been there a good few years!

So..will my apples taste of nuts..or will my nuts taste of apples...

Regards,
