Didn't realise that Almazrose! That's great then, because we get robins in our garden & I have two of these trees with berries on. They will have plenty to get them fit for winter!

yes they will you may find you see the trees covered in robins.

Well, I know we have two or three for certain, I would love to see flocks of robins!!

its been know in winter (flocks of Robins) but iam afraid you might have a bare tree before then or if the flocks
gather early the trees may become bare because of the
dear little Robins,either way you just might have seen the flock of Robins you desire to see, hope so!

I don't mind them eating all the berries.

The birds are going to be well fed in your garden with all that choice of berries Shirl :o)

I saw these when we were out yesterday and wondered what they are called.
Many thanks for this!!

I first saw the Spindleberry tree (don't know the botanical name) in the wild many years ago & it looked so pretty with all the pink & orange berries that I wanted one of my own.
I bought one & it took ages to get berries, but my neighbour also gave me one that she had grown from seed & that has done really well, so now I have two that produce loads of berries - especially this year!!

anything that encourages birds has to be a good thing, and this is a lovely way to do it
