Big old privet I dug towards the end of autumn. It's hard to find big stumps like this so I'm happy to have stumbled across this one.

Re: Large Privet
Is someone missing part of a hedge? 
I almost had a good one that construction workers had dug up. But someone had completely ring barked it and cut halfway through the trunk.
You can make that pretty decent within a couple years with some carving and branch development.

Re: Large Privet
Haha, if only we could This one came from a house demo down the road, had to dig it myself though.
I'm hearing you, most privet seem to be all suckers, it's a pity someone destroyed it on you. Last year I had my eye an old azalea that was about 2' tall with a good 2" thick trunk and the house got demo'd before I got to it. Could have cried.
Yeah the carved privet look awesome, not sure where I collected these pics so cant credit the creator but I'm aiming for something like this.
