My problem is my mother has decided she would like the firewood.

Does Leyllandi make even half decent firewood? I'd have thought it
would have a rather high resin content and thus produce rather more
tar than most other woods. What is she going to burn it in/on? Who has
to sweep the flue/chimney?

My thoughts exactly. In an open fire it will spit sparks; in a log
stove it will tar the chimney very quickly, causing messy tar runs
overnight or possibly a chimney blockage or fire. Also, she would need
somewhere dry to store the wood for a year before using it.
