spot on saltydad - a chook is a chicken (keep forgetting that you lot and we lot speak the same language with so many differences)

a peach face is a small african parrot - Google Image Result for http://www.petbirdpage.com/images/peach-fa.jpg is a link to a picture of one

putting lots of plants into a small space is like having lots of potted plants in the soil

planting close makes the plants self prune the branches and the root competition is like a pot - - this limits growth and fruit production, but because I'd rather have some fruit for most of the year rather than 200kg of oranges in one week it makes us happier.
