Default Top Tip concerning Elder Twigs

Having hacked into an elder tree in the corner of our small garden (way too
small to have an elder dominating a bit chunk of it) I found myself with
lots of useable looking twigs. So I used one to support a growing bean
plant.

Anyone want a new elder tree? In the current grim weather, the twig is
almost matching the bean for growth...

Ha - reminds me of forsythia which I prune and then push the thicker pieces
in and around the peonies before they get high. Some of the forsythia
usually takes root.

Nah ... all the witches will do is a sorrowful shake of the head while
muttering:

"You didn't orter have done that. You REALLY didn't orter ..."

It's not the *witches* you need worry about at all ...
