In our hedge we had the bark beetle. Three trees we had already lost and now holes in the hedge, so we decided to cut down the hedge:

A job for my Stihl!





And for my Kuno !!



For the remaining stubs I rented a grinder for one day. Price 160€/$200.

To level the dirt I ordered 16cbm/560cbft of topsoil and used Kuno again to arrange it. Took me 2 hours, but frankly you do not really see a big difference...



While I was in the garden and trimmed the trees for spring, I decided to have a big X.
After they will be growen together, maybe I will later place a treasure in between... :D

Looks good, big difference. I bet it will take a while to get used to the new view.
Yes, it is now very "naked". But the main impact is the wind. Not so nice anymore. I will place a fence and a 7ft high net to break the wind and also the visibility from the street. In one year, when the bark beetle is gone we will put some new plants. :cool:
