Sorry for the dumb questions, but the owner doesn't know. When I said they look like Yucca she gave me a daft look lol.5616
How easy are they to remove? And do I need council approval?

Also although these are everywhere i don't know what they are called.5617

And the last one, not the ivy the stuff in the rockery.5618


Cheers

That's great guys, would i need council approval to remove those trees. They are pushing onto the ceiling and are going to cause a lot of damage.

Also there are some fully grown ones at the front of the property she wants removed, but i think I'll leave those to the big boys lol.

The grey plant in the middle is wormwood (Artimsia) if thats the one you mean.
Im not sure of your municipalities rules but u could always check re trees.
I dont think u'd have a prob with the Yuccas as Yucca's r technically a monocot, therefor a grass, if u want to argue the point;dealers;
Cheers Fred.

any council that would have a problem with yucca's being removed would only be proving they are a bunch of money grubbing thieves. They are a dime a dozen and get to that size in no time. Btw did I say I think they should be listed as a noxious weed and the ends of the leaves are dangerous, especially to young kids eyes.
