Ahhh. Yep. That's couch. I've got it too, but in my case I don't mind as it's on my nature strip and it's not smothering the buffalo. Lovely and soft amongst the buffalo. Post back if you have luck with the herbicide

I believe that's Kikuyu. If the runners are quite pale and underground that's going to be confirmed. Um not much you can do other than chase the outbreaks and pull it out. Doable, just painful.

Re: When to prune an English Box Hedge
Landscape & Garden Design

Oct 11, 2018 4:25 pm
Definitely prune often. You need to keep in mind that as the hedge matures, the trunk and branches get woody and lack any decent leaf growth. Another reason to prune often is to increase the density of leaf.

Only issue is; "Syzygium paniculatum can be susceptible to psyllids, the insects that can cause leaf pimpling.." ->https://www.gardeningwithangus.com.au/syzygium-paniculatum-lilly-pilly/ I still highly recommend resilience.

Highly recommend the Syzygium Resilience - lilly pilly. I have both this and the Aussie Southern variety and I have to say the resilience colour is the best of the two, and no psyllid issues compared to my Aussie Southern variety. By the look of the OP pics, these look like my Aussie Southern variet...

if you have a dog, don't plant brunfelsia as their seed pods are poisonous. Does it get full sun, IE. Was the pic taken in the morning? My tips are; Casade Lilly Pilly Resilience Lilly pilly Plant in a row. Trim it as much or as little as you want. I'd lean toward cascade as their foliage is spectac...

Guys. The rules regarding engineering also apply at any height wall (yes, even 30cm) within 1 metre of a boundary.

I used this stuff which isn't cheap but was highly recommended to me by a landscaper who uses alot of natural stone. but I have to say it works a treat on sandstone. Bat poo and cockatoo bombs just wash clean, no stain. Pardon the pun. Amber tiles. You can probably find it cheaper elsewhere. https:/...

Personally I'd hand weed through winter. Herbicide treatment is possible with Buffalo but there isn't much of a big deal to pull out the offending weeds

Having had a similar build on piers/posts/bearers I share your concerns. Avoid any possible water movement to your piers/posts and your all good.

Looking good already Shaz. And the Brom rack looking great as well... I'm thinking of a similar look but instead stack sections of steppers. Are you planning to let some ground cover colonise the ground there or gravel?
