Hazel horror: if anyone has read my previous post today they will have noticed the dreaded hazel lurking in my long-neglected flowerbeds. I yank them out when I see them but some have grown so big I can't (old age creeps on...) If I keep chopping back will this only make things worse? Can I selectively kill them? (some are in rock garden with 'dry-stone' walls so hard to shift).

God bless squirrels, eh? I have a lovely population of red squirrels in my oak trees, BUT...

Thanks for help as always!
