Hi Nuts,

So a while back I grew tired of the small twigs that I was playing around on.

I had a couple of these that I picked up at club, and buried them a 2 years ago (on tiles at least). Been thinking about removing them, as they're basically on my boundary wall AND I'd like to start working on the roots.

My chairman is pushing me to pull them out before bud breaks here in the southern hemisphere, but I'd like to layer the tops off first... I'm basically in no major rush (boundary 2all permitting).

I'm just looking for some ideas on what's next for me, as I'm a bit torn.

- Pull then out now before bud break, work the roots and let them recover before I put them in the ground again...
- leave in the ground for 1 more year, but dig a trench on 2 sides of each tree, and layer the tops off. I'll work the roots then, then replant them once again for base/nefarious development.

Any feedback?

Anyone?
