Yes. Do they burn well?

Yes, Leylandii is good as firewood, not the absolute best (like Ash)
but perfectly acceptable and certianly better than pine and such. We
have been burning our Leylandii for several years now.

It's excellent 'outdoor' wood too, it lasts an amazingly long time as
untreated posts etc.

Oh, to burn it you need to season it (i.e. let it dry) for a good year
before use.
