However, if I did get to it at the right time, its suckering habit would be a bonus because of all the flower heads. Why is this a problem? You aren't on the property when it flowers? Too busy? It only flowers at midnight on the new moon on the tird day of .....? Discussions with the previous owners of my new pace reveal they bottled both Elderberry Flower Wine & Elderbarry Wine every year for the last 27 or so. Maybe they sit & watch & wait then pounce? The quince tree made me buy the house! I fell so in love with the twisted,knarled old monstrosity that they could have sold be a humpy & I wouldn't have noticed. When I got home & had the photos developed I discovered I had bought a solid brick gem of a house in 100% condition. Most of the garden that crammed English Cottage style. The remainder is vegies & fruit trees .The soil is astonishingly fertile in itself but has been given a boost with huge amounts of seaweed over the decades.A well sits just outside the back door with a permanent mineral spring flowing into it. Think I've dropped dead & gone to heaven.Someone pinch me! Ayn Marx |
