LOL, Bobbie! Well, he's right, of course, as constant defoliation
eventually kills any plant...but with PI, who'd you get (in their
right mind) to DO it?
Understand goats love the stuff. Have often been very tempted to
rent a herd for that purpose. You do have to keep an eye on them,
tho' as they are not discriminating and will eat most anything green,
I've heard.
