More so than most gardens placed on tour, it does feel like a very private space. As to the stump question, I regret every large stump I let slip away when we had 3 trees removed over the years (2 at the behest of our former nightmare neighbor). I did keep 3 smallish stumps from the peppermint willow but in retrospect wish I'd held onto some pieces of the large Eucalyptus.

I have one and was thinking of making an outdoor table out of it but this is much cooler!

They may have small solar panels on top that would cause them glow in the dark. I wish I could see that!<br />Oh, to have such a massive stump! The creativity and planting it would inspire: the possibilities are endless.<br />ChavliAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
