get/hire in a circular saw will cut at least 4 times as fast as a chainsaw we can fill a tattie box in about 15 mins without too much effort -

Not as quick as you might think with toms sticks we started like that before splitting them it takes an age and is surprisingly hard on the back and with the bits that don't need splitting the circular saw can go through 3or4 at a time at an alarming pace -
Can't burn on site have been looking at small chipper need to know the throughout before I quote so I don't end up out of pocket

hi all just been asked to quote for a conni hedge removal all smallish trees that have been "topped" at about 12 foot in the past there's 16 of them in total ranging from 4 inch across to about 16 inch across customer wants everything less that 4 inches either chipping or removing. nice easy job really only problem is im a self employed gardener who is just starting to move onto trees anyone able to tell me just how much brash there will be and how long it should take to chip? or as an alternative anyone in the area (yarm) with a chipper want to quote me for chipping the arisings and if its cheaper than my price for hireing the chipper and removing the chip then ill sub it out to you thanks mike

'riversii' is just the cultivar tho Fagus sylvatica (Atropurpurea Group) 'Riversii' Fagus sylvatica (Atropurpurea Group) 'Riversii' | Purple beech/RHS Gardening copper beech and purple beech are just two names for the same thing

if i post an image of my fave could you tell witch it is? not challenging you im just curious to know
-
is there? i thought they were one and the same it wouldn't be the first time i thought wrong mind
-
makes sense now all we need is standardized pronunciation and we might just get somewhere
-
yea at a place i volunteered whilst studying horticulture there was at least 3 different pronunciations of cotinus coggygria from 3 different sources in the end it was easier to use the common name when referring to it to avoid confusion in my eyes it kind of defeated the point of knowing botanical names
-
like i said i could be wrong im only a lowly gardener after all if you could post links to the pdf files they could be useful next time i have an insomniac night. it has to be said that nomenclature wasn't my strongest point in collage especially when it came to pronunciation and spelling lol
-
only know that because its my fave tree im sure that someone can come up with one with 5 names
-
fagus sylvatica purpurea pendula could be wrong but 4 names the fourth used to describe growth habit
-

-
Did you drop it off at saltersgill allotments? If you did i might ask my mate there for a few barrowfulls if your ever in the area again and need a chip site give me a shout i can always use it or find someone with a use for it
