It's a shame it has to be cut. I guess it will now take a year or two

Shouldn't do. Didn't you say you had lots of flower on it earlier?
Provided the flowers were pollinated, you should still get some sort
of crop. However, if you have squirrels (deeply cute flying rats),
they will get the lion's share :~(.


Yes, lots of squirrels. Another challenge to look forward to!




:~} Well, if you find the secret of stopping them, do come back and let
me know.

Hope you get a chance to enjoy your fruit.
