Thank you. I always learn more on the blackberry tutorials each time. Yes look forward to the holly rings being made. Have a great week to both of you . 🐔🍇
I always enjoy your vidoes. You have a wealth of knowledge - thanks for sharing it! Your holly rings are just my taste - red ribbon and all. So festive!
Hi Cliff and Dianne, hope you're well. I'll be clipping my raspberries and black raspberries next week. We've been having mild, sunning weather up until now. My pepper plants are still gong strong with lots of peppers. Here in Greece traditionally we don't have wreaths, nor do we trim Christmas trees although most have been doing so for the last 40 years or so ( it's more a tradition of the western countries). Being Greek Orthodox Christians here it's more a religious event centered around the birth of Jesus Christ. Thanks again for a wonderful video. God bless.
Hi Helen, pleased to hear you peppers are still growing strong. A old tradition here was to put some holly over your front door, also over the fireplace to keep bad spirits away. This has now evolved to holly rings and swags. Thank for watching regards from us both.
Hi there Cliff and lovely Diane The blackberries were something i was doing monday as had day off work and dry , didnt know chicken liked blackberries as my daughter has chickens on plot three away from us. If id known we could of given some to them yesterday, val and lia will be eagerly watching your video on wreath making .
Hi Bill & Val, I find all my chickens love all the soft fruits even chopped grapes. Its a good winter job done, pruning the blackberries. Hope you are enjoying the dry weather regards from us both.
Hi Elizabeth I know what you mean, when we had a plant nursey we made a over 200 every year. A lot of work Its not just making them, but sourcing the materials. Take care regards Cliff.
my family buys me new scissors and pruners for Christmas every year because i lose them. i think i must be holding them in my hand when i throw the debris in the trash and just throw the pruners or scissors out. or maybe i have buried about 20 of them in the garden, lol.

Lovely video both , being a florist we used to make around 300 Holly wreath every year finger would be in shreds at the end of it 🙄

Lol at your comment Liana, I know what you mean I have mislaid my hori hori knife. I am quite cross with myself regards Cliff.
Thanks Cliff.
Can i ask you if you take the ends off your blackberries through the season? they didnt seem very long? Mine are 15ft long
Hi Hevchip, yes I do prune them throughout the summer, also trim the side shoots also. If not they would be 15ft long regards Cliff.
@CastleHillGarden thanks. Keep warm.
Hi Cliff did you ever consider Loganberry and Tayberry
Hi Mike, I have tried the tayberry but they are too strong growing for my garden. Thanks for watching regards Cliff.
