Bombom's Garden

Arbutus unedo

Species: Strawberry Tree.

Another large Tree in my front Garden, a prolific fruiter, the fruits are a pleasant taste, but contain a large amount of very hard tiny seeds, the tree is about 40 feet High, and about the same Diameter, I have to trim it regularly as it overhangs the Footpath, it is in a far from ideal position, and as the second picture shows its roots are very restricted, but it doesn't seem to bother it and only the other day I removed a 15 foot Branch which had spread right across my Driveway,
