Tim mulched some of his willow trees and so offered us some of it for round the mandarins. We bought 2 truck loads and started putting it round the trees today - looks much better! George had sprayed about a week ago so it was a good time to do it.
Tim also sprayed seaweed on them when he was here.... they look happier already and check out the fruit on this one.
I got 9 small grisilineas for $5 each today as well and we started planted those in the spots where the others have died. We decided not to buy any bigger ones than that just in case they die again.

Hey Vicki our neighbour across the road has Mandarin trees and for the first couple of years she pretty much striped the tree of its fruit to enable the tree to build up its strength, now they are so lush and produce so much fruit. Not telling you how to suck eggs lol just a hint
Yes, Mum thought so too and checked for me on Burkes Back Yard website and confirmed too.. so off they came yesterday!
