    I'd be eating them  :D

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    You can plant them, but squirrels will dig them up and eat them in no time

    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
  • Squirrel also plants them for you. Doesn't always think to dig them up later so lots of seedlings.
    Quite a few of mine have dropped already but not ripe enough yet.
    Both I and the Squirrel usually get a good enough haul to satisfy both of us.

    Me neither.
    I had one for about 10 years and dug it up eventually.
    Plenty of nuts formed but I never got a single one :(

  • I must be lucky then - I still have a bowl full of ripe nuts from last year.  As well as just munching or having with cereal , I also use them in home made chocs.  Wrapped in marzipan and coated in choc they are a treat.
    Sorry about that B3 and Pete  :D

    Your 'sympathy ' is noted.😐

  • It was a bit mean wasn't it ? ;)  Blame the weather or the fact that I'm tired of making Mackerel Fish cakes.
