isn't arbtalk brilliant !

[travis]

the guys have just fixed my chainsaw in the 'chainsaw' dept of arbtalk, i have just been asked by a mate "could i get hold of a load of tree stumps" i laughed and replied people usually want to get rid of them!

this person wants to build a stump garden planted with ferns and stuff.

what sort of job would involve pulling up the root bases ? Christmas tree plantation? national trust (removing rhododendrons) ?

thoughts?

How big do the stumps need to be? We've got a pile of old Christmas tree stumps here but most don't get past 5" stem thickness.

I have a pile of large spruce stumps near Llandovery .

I have got a lot of spruce stumps in abergavenny- but they are heavy- you wouldnt get more than 8 or so on a 3500kgs trailer before it was overoaded. These are 2 ft, 3 ft across, so big trees, well they were when they were upright!
