Hubby bought me one for the camillia tree as lovley as it it it sure makes a heck of a mess , it mashes it all up ready for the compost and as there is gravel all round the tree its a nightmare to get the flower heads and petals up and it wont take the gravel  .

Chrissie, what about raking the gravel and get all the suckable stuff off the gravel  then use your machine,,,

No need you can go over the gravel it just drops out , beside the tree are 2 oblong shaped bushes and they get stuck behind them its a real pain as behind the bushes is a fence we gave it ago and its fab .

I have one which I use to collect and macerate leaves from the Recreation Ground. I then put them in a 1m³ pallet bin and press them down until the bin is full. There are some beech trees and the beech mast shells rattle around but then drop back down the pipe.
