My daughter and son in law have some in their garden and they take quite a spread AND are messy. Two of theirs are in a bad way and are waiting to be felled. The mess they drop is ugly on the lawns. Of course the local kids love the Conkers. It's a walled garden so the kids can't come in, but my daughter collects up bucketfuls and leaves them outside the main gates ;-)) Mike -- ....................................

I have a couple of conker trees which I grew from seed. The older one is around ten years old, perhaps a little more, and has flowered for the last two years. Not copiously, but it still looks quite a young tree. David -- David Rance writing from Caversham, Reading, UK http://rance.org.uk |
