composting

for the rhodo leaves - they seem to take for ever to break down in woodland, so I presume they'd take for ever in the compost heap too. I think I'd put them in a brown bin or burn them, or if you have enough room for a really wild corner then I'd put them by nightgarden

Bark mulch

. And magpies prefer picking meat. We're in a small village surrounded by farmland and woodland, so you name it, we've got it! Me thinks the rascels that delight in the major reclamation projects in our garden are the blackbirds and thrushes. I just read a post by DavesBonnyLass

Edging for bed

in the veggie patch. We've used 9" high concrete "log roll" to edge paths in the woodland garden and hold back the soil and plants. I can recommend them all as edgers but you'd need something stouter than the log rolls to retain soil so I would go for wooden by bunnysgarden
