Owner's comments
All my trees are organically grown in grass which is mowed four or five times a year. No pest control is employed, but free-range hens patrol the orchards, scratching under the trees. The trees are full of spiders, anthocoris, ladybirds etc and pests are not a problem.Season records for this tree
