Today I had my gardener and his son come over to help thin the Hawaiian Apples and harvest a bunch too. We removed about 50 trees and pups of all sizes! I totally forgot to get a before picture but if you can imagine not being able to see any open air through the stand that's what it looked like before. We also reduced the circumference of the matt by a few feet on all sides and a little more in the rear by the fence line. I still have some corms to remove but they are right next to flowering plants so I left them for the time being. Yay I can see the sky again!
