Shredder for Holly clippings
wrote in message ... We're about to move house and one of the first jobs I will have to do is trim the holly hedge that surrounds the property. It's a bit of a monster, probably about 50m in length and about 3m tall so is going to produce a ton of clippings which I will need to dispose of. I was thinking of shredding them to save space but most of the shredder reviews I've seen don't seem to work too well on fresh/green stuff and I really don't want this lying around for weeks whilst I wait for it to go brown! Can anyone recommend a shredder that will cope with the fresh clippings and the odd thicker branch but will also not break the bank. I suppose the only other alternative is to burn them, does holly burn well ? Thanks Should have added that Holly does burn well green, a bit too well actually and you can get a lot of firey sparks! -- Charlie, Gardening in Cornwall Holders of National Collections of Clematis viticella and Lapageria rosea cvs http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk |
