Ta for that; Here goes.
Next question is:
does anyone know what to do with 10feet of thick Cordyline trunk
(telegraph
pole thickness)?
Soup recipes?
Battering ram?
Tropical caber ******* in need of a pole?
I am not sure how to get it down without killing myself mind you.

Could you just grow something else up it - e.g. Clematis, rose,
Lonicera?


That is the bit I am taking down; I will leave a few feet to regrow.

Ah, sorry, I didn't get that. In that case, like eating the elephant, I
suggest. A little at a time. ;-)

I am sure there must be some fantastic herbal cure derived from them; maybe
for piles or itchy ears or maybe the wood is famously perfect for shaving
brush handles. Anyway, it will sit in a pile until I can find a use.
