The stones are half the size, too. Want some? I've still got half a bag
of uneaten hunzas.

O.K., Rusty, you've convinced me, I'll try growing anything, as
you already know.
I've got a peach in the middle of the lawn, about 10ft tall, grown from stone, and it crops, but I DO spray with Murphy's copper fungicide.
From your past posts I suspect you are not too far from me, I'm
in the Dereham area, so please can you tell me where you got the hunzas from ?
Much appreciated.
Tim.
