Found another two damson trees today, in another neglected hedgerow, on Council open ground.
Some of the fruit is/was rotten on the bough, and some were beginning to dry out.
Anyone else noticed the difference in blackthorn;
older trees, often with lichen encrustations, the sloes appear in bunches,
younger bushes/trees/shoots, the sloes are spread out, maybe one every 8/9 inches along the branch?
