oak leaves and pine needles despite their acidity break down to a good
neutral ph once they compost.............madgardener

No such thing as too many leaves.

Even if they're 80% oak? Wondering about the acidity. I usually rake them
away from the gardens and into the woods, but maybe shouldn't? Around the
azaleas, I piled them as mulch. I suppose they could go on the gardens,
then be offset by wood ashes.
