PD. Posted August 13, 2009 (edited) OK, i recently found that a very old pachanoi i know of was hacked to the ground by the new owners of the property. A couple of weeks before that i had considered going and asking them if they wanted it removed for free as they had pulled down the old shed it was next to and i had a feeling the pach was next. I was sad to see it in a huge pile the next time i went past it, 50+ years of growing down the gurgler, i was more pissed at myself for not going and asking to remove it for them and to make things worse they had hacked it down with machetes and axes then used a garden fork to throw it into a pile. Alot of the cuts were in poor shape as they had been sitting in the rain for a few days but i took the lot regardless. I went thru and cut out what i could, gave an arseload away and then let the rest go to see how it would heal. It has been a while and i cant seem to get rid of anymore locally and lots of what is left is deteriorating quickly, it just seems like a waste to let it all rot away to nothing especially considering the age of the stuff....... so, whoever would like around 40ft of pedro for free let me know, pick up only of course and please asap! Whoever can get here first and pick it up will get it. Like i said, lots of it isnt in the best condition but is still useful for making ummmmmm shampoo Edited August 13, 2009 by PD.
