08/01/15 Frost: About My Edible BackyardWhy DavidB Love's Edible Plants I Love growing produce, purchased a pile of fruit trees and bushfood just to realise as I started planting my new landscape that we would have to knock down the house and rebuild as I had 1 to many children..... well nearly 2 years later after digging up all my trees, the house is rebuilt and I have a consruction zone for a garden and alot of trees in pots. Well I have slowly started replanting...... Comments* You need your own My Edibles Page to contribute Quick & Easy |
Olive - ArbequinaDavidB's Edible FruitsUpdate: 3368 days 14hrs Comments: - 4 growing well and fruiting, made olives last year and trees fruiting up this year. Planted: 2004 Height 2 metres Growing: In the Ground Qty: 4 Pollination: Self Pollination Was this review helpful? Yes | No | Report 2 of 4 people found this review useful CommentsDavidB says... [5040 days 7hrs ago]Planted in the front yard after digging them out of the back yard 2 years ago they had made it up to 3 meters high (alot of pruning) before being cut down to less that half height and placed in milk crates. I can't believe they all survived but luckily they did and they now seem to have stabalised and have started growing. At there feet are lots of Aloevera.* You need your own My Edibles Page to contribute Quick & Easy |
