Chipper/Mulcher

last year we purchased a big chipper, we just had a very small one when we lived in Linden but with the amount of trees here we needed something with a little more grunt.

we got 3 barra loads of mulch from down the back & another one from the hedge out the front.
it makes a big job very easy & pretty quick.

Dogwood Tree

i have 2 favourite trees & one is the dogwood, it is a tree for all seasons. 
early spring 'now in fact' it gets a beautiful flower the one i have is pink & white with a green centre.
after the flowers come the fresh green leaves 
the bright red berries are next & the change into autumn red then purple leaves
winter brings the bare branches

every cycle of this tree is beautiful & the fact that it is called a Dogwood makes it even more appealing.
