Bye.
And Judy, you want to talk about deciduous shrubs and fruit trees.

Well, it's all happening at this time of year, isn't it? You know, um, they're all starting to lose their leaves.

So, uh, all the deciduous fruit trees now should be sprayed with copper oxychloride.
Okay.
What does that do?

Okay.

And, uh, other things we've got problems with at the moment are gardenias and Murrayas.
