I have been given access to a garden thats getting sn overhaul. Its full of natives I can identify accaia but dont know what species. They have already been cut bsck to stumps with no green left on them.
Are they worth collecting?

Re: Collecting native stumps
Depends how bad you want them. I always cut back natives to virtually a bare stump anyway - my theory is that it reduces transpiration. After our recent Bimer club dig I would highly recommend getting a mini excavator in to do the hard work for you.
