Thread: Pine Tree on the boundary

Looks like the fence was buried in the tree at some stage! Just guessing at Macrocarpa

Plenty of obstacles but thankfully no mishaps.

Top job Steve.........great to see a job well done.....obviously by someone who knows what he's doing!
Are both the neighbours still talking......and.....did they each shout you half a carton????

I think it's a macrocarpa.
One neighbour decided to back his new ute out of that shed behind the tree. I didn't argue.
They both helped cart the wood away and we celebrated with a stubby. Certainly let the light into the backyard. I have a nifty lift 170 that makes the job easier.
