    Not JKW  have you /did you have a fruit tree nearby? Just run them over with the mower. They'll give up eventually.
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Hi 

    Thanks for the post we have a large tree the otherside of the fence on the local authority land which produces cherries.

    I can start breathing again now :-)

    Yes, cherry shoots from runners which can go a surprising distance. We get then every year from an old wild cherry on the edge of the garden.
