Lol Sandra , you wouldn't want all the work
that goes with it or the Rabbits /Squirrels attacking and eating everything . we are in the process of putting a second layer of rabbit proof wire round on top of the first lot .. the squirrels think it's their playground ! we've even chased a Muntjac deer out ....

They are even bigger now Kathy , each one has several branches shooting out covered in flowers , when do you collect the seed ? I presume they will be in the flower heads somewhere !
