So this year our espaliered apple trees only managed to squeeze out TWO normal sized apples, the rest are all stunted midgetty ones. The Minx and I would check on those apples every day to see whether they were big enough and ripe enough for her lunchbox. Yesterday we went to check the tree and ONE OF THE APPLES WAS GONE. We found it later, half eaten, in another part of the garden. Yes, it ignored all the midgetty squirrel-sized apples and then didn't even have the decency to eat it all. Stealing apples from little girls. Evil. Pure evil. OK. So this year our espaliered apple trees only managed to squeeze out TWO normal sized apples, the rest are all stunted midgetty ones.
