I remember Bob Flowerdew saying to put your leaves in plastic bags and
forget them for a couple of years. I found my bags this week behind
the shed, full of lovely leaf mould.

Now, anyone know why I did this? What is the stuff for?

Thanks

Use it to mulch around plants, esp. moisture-loving woodland plants, but
anything that would appreciate a yummy duvet over the winter. Otherwise,
add it your potting mix.

Yes, I do the same.

I have a lot of trees, get the leaves up and put them into pierced black
dustbin bags behind the greenhouse for couple of years. Some bags are
leering at me to get them out to do something with them while I still have
this years crop to go into bags..
When I say I have a lot of trees, maybe 70 ish.
