What do you do with so many?Comment

show off!Originally posted by Snadger View Post
i believe that one of my green ones *should* be yellow, but they look green so i call them green
i get sawfly most years and once the leaves are all gone i can see at least one label - it was still readable last year, but i'm not fussed what it says - i just want to get the goosegogs in the freezer and then make jams and winesOriginally posted by Snadger View Post(they did have names originally but if the tags still on them no way am I putting my hand in the heart of the bushes to find out what they areComment
