On December 8th, 2011, THE NEXT LIFE OF THE DOWNED CAROB TREE…

  home, landscape

one massive trunk of the carob tree gently resting on the fence

…which is now lying in wait and shorn of it’s branches – will include: the chipping of it’s branches into mulch for the garden beds, paths, and slopes; the cutting of it’s medium sized trunks into 18 and 30 inch pieces for garden seating and table surfaces; and the really massive lower sections will remain where they have fallen to retain planting terraces and to create long tree seating landscapes, to be occupied like driftwood on the beach.
