Palustris:
We have been doing some work on the new garden.
We removed part of a Leylandii hedge. This is the brash from it
Going, going, gone.











And this is where it has gone to.



The branches and stumps were also cut up and stacked. A neighbour will have the logs when they have dried out and when the Lockdown is over.

Oh my goodness, gracious me :o
 
Did you do that on your own Eric????? :o
You one very fit guy and all neatly stacked.
I presume you are handy with a chain saw??
I am SO impressed. How long did it take you? How tall was it?

That's going to keep somebody's home fie burning for a LONG time ;D

You'll sleep tonight Eric:D

I hate Leylandii hedges with a passion,
I have a Leylandii Castlewellan Gold hedge all the way along the length of our property. Its is a nightmare. SUPER FAST growing. I cut it over the winter months, filling a recycle bin in each session. It sure keeps me warm on a cold
day! After a couple of months it looks like it needs clipped again (I never have time to do that in summer!) and by winter it has 2 to 3 ft growth in most places,

Now, your solution? I LIKE that!

Palustris:
At the bottom of the garden was a 40 feet long, 12 foot high Leylandii hedge. It has gone. Most of that went to the re-cycling yard. Car load, after car load.
This is what it was like.



All cut back  Stumps  needed removing and the cut material needed shredding.

We left the ones nearest to the drive for the moment for security. We removed them when we had a date for fencing. The length of the piece is about 14 metres. It gives us another 2 metres of garden behind the shed and the greenhouse base.

Palustris:
And more images,








The new fence.

ideasguy:
Is that your property on both sides of the new fence?
