Group:


Are nitrogen-fixing shrubs (i.e. Autum olive, goumi, silverberry;
sea-buckthorn; etc.) good for planting bellow fruit trees (Prunus, etc.)? Or
would this over-do it, maybe encouraging disease? It probably will greatly
increase weed recruitment, but so would general fertilization.


Thanks,
