I have "inherited" a VERY overgrown garden
It slopes quite steeply from the house and is long - about 100' or so
The neighbours tell me that previous owner was a keen garderner until
ill health forced him to all but abandon it.
Looking out on it i see, amongst the fushias, clematises (clematii?) etc
some sycamore sapplings (quite a few), various hawthorn bushes, and
LOTS of bindweed and brambles mixed in to the privet hedge that runs
the full length of the garden, front to back, which too, is overgrown.
What i would like to do is "sort the wheat from the chaff" and go in
there well armed.
This is where my question starts:
Is there such a thing as a motorised pruning saw i can hire, to especially
cut back the hedge so it matches the contours of the neighbours?
I dont think it would need a chainsaw, and, anyway, they scare me to
death lol !!!!
I would rather do it myself as opposed to calling someone in to do it, as
finances are a bit tight, but also, i dont have the time to spend using
hand loppers etc - its too far gone for that
Any advice gratfully recieved
