Hi all,

Just moved to a new house, the garden is a little un-cared for - but
only for a year or so while the move completed. Before I start hacking

The final picture is of an apple tree that looks to have had aphids on
it for some time. I've washed the worst of them off but is it beyond
saving?

No, there's no problem. Apple trees can take a lot worse damage than
this.

There's another apple tree within touching distance that is in great
health although they look more like cookers than eaters - have to try
some apple wine :-)

Way too early to tell which they are at the moment! A few apples are
ripe in August, but the rest won't ripen until the autumn. At the moment
they all look green and unappetising ;-)
