. ie...
our garden is covered in dead Cordyline leaves. I have tried shredding
them
with a small shredder and they simply tangle and jam it. I also tried
running over them with a petrol mower and same happened. I tried
composting
and they emerge after 6 months looking the same as when they went in.
Anyone got any recipes? Can you smoke them? Could I build an extension
or
line the chimney with them?

I pick them up in bunches and chop them with my secretors just dropping the
bits as I go, Mind your fingers though!
