I am reading The Hidden Life of Trees
www.amazon.com/Hidden-Life-Trees-Communicate-Discoveries/dp/1771642483
It is very useful.
Anyway it reminded me of an incident long ago. There was a cherry guava tree in the back yard but it did not produce much fruit and mostly they had fruit fly. So one night, I went out in the dark and showed an ax to the tree and said: If you do not produce good fruit I will cut you down. I told no one about this and no one saw me.
Two weeks later my partner came in from the back yard and said: That cherry guava is terrified that you will cut it down.
As it happened the fruit improved and the tree remained.
