Coffee as a hedge
#22
The story of my mango: I didn't know I had one. There was something at the very end of my driveway that was struggling, surrounded by weeds. Someone told me it was a guava. Very reedy. Thin. I had a guy (Ashley's Tractor -- he did a good job) removes some non-producing trees, haul away some junk in June. He composted the green waste around the mystery tree very carefully in a circle around the trunk. I come in October -- nice green, happy mango tree (identified by those who know). I'd say it is about ten feet tall. It was very strange. Nothing resembling a tree....then suddenly, a tree! I was pretty pleased as I would rather have a mango than a guava, and it is a very pretty, very green tree. I am not sure they actually fruit down in lower HPP, but you never know.

I think I can probably chance the cacao growing into the mango. I think cacao are slow growing.

Rose beetle bad! But at least I won't be bitten. And I still haven't seen the dreaded centipede, so me happy.
