Timber!

It was a bit of a sad day yesterday, as we said goodbye to a small stand of beautiful gum trees. However they were a little too close to the house, both from a fire and wind perspective, and blocked a lot of sunlight from the house, garden and the solar panels in winter. Well, we now have a good future firewood supply on hand.

  1. Oh no! But it does look good though! And needed to be done.
    I've recently planted a row of small flowering gums and on the lookout for a bottlebrush....can't wait for them to be big, big, big and give us a little privacy!
    Have a lovely weekend x
