    Paul
    I do the exact same thing to pennisetums,they grow that fast here I have one lot that gets done at least 4 times a year. If the owners get them done regularly they are a nice feature,let em go and they look crap.

    I pruned these ones a couple of time previously and like you said they do look good when they're tidied up. They need space though. Have been asked to dig these ones out so I might divide them and re-pot them them to sell and make a few extra dollars.

    Nice work! Real showcase properties those ones. I'd love to trade the ferals and tidy-ups I seem to get for some nice jobs like those.

    Keep punching Paul, they do come along it can take a while before you get one and then sometimes they are not worth the heartache. Client becomes a pita, expects extra for nothing and so on.

    That is so true about the clients at first their great, Then it just gets worse cause they want extra's every time you go there. But it is nice to have a couple of places like that where you can show off your work.

    Nice work imoww you do a great job. Is that place in the highlands?

    Thanks again guys. Gallons of Seasol and trimming all year round...
    It's in Burwood NSW. It's a federation mansion. I originally go this customer ( word of mouth)
    The client is nice and honest. Hasnt asked for extra freebies yet. ( been 10 months now with her) She has referred me to another 2 personal friends with the same kind of homes.
    Here is a pic of one of the new ones.

    Are those lizards territorial?

    I hate coming across wildlife like that because your normally in your own little world and next minute you need to change your pants
