I seem to be doing a lot of cutting back lately but this was a bigger job. This is the removal of a forty year old Grapefruit tree as unfortunately it was diseased. I hate doing this but we don't eat many Grapefruit and we still have another tree.
Alex isn't very keen on heights but with a little encouragement he managed to reach the top of the fruit picking ladder. I had been using the ladder to cut back two Avocado trees, which have never fruited, before removing them. These trees came from seeds planted by Elin and Sara about ten years ago and have only ever produced small flowers.

A lovely splash of bright colour against the Wisteria and Jasmine.
