We've just moved into a bungalow , the garden has a tree or a bush ? but I think its dead :( .

I'll post a picture , if it were alive it would be in blossom by now .

Scrape off a bit of bark you will see if it's alive looks a bit close to the property for me to want it there tree roots do more damage than people think

How do we remove bramble bushes ? they are everywhere in the garden of the place we just moved to, and they are in the cracks of the walls near the sides of the bungalow pavements , also they are at the base of the fences .

If anyone knows I would appreciate it very much please .

We live near woodland and my friend sent this beauty today .

The council sent people today and they cleared slabs and dug some out , but there are still some there as i mentioned. Hubby pulled a root and it went on for ages lol , but at least its out . It's far too hot today to be dragging bramble roots out , I cannot do it , but my sons and hubby can on cooler days .
