A deciduous windbreak is one of the items I need to plan and progress with so the more ideas I have the better.RobynLouisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08050372484207822842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-801030191087496810.post-88477312719118131782017-01-27T12:03:15.789+10:002017-01-27T12:03:15.789+10:00Yes that is the same one we have.

I use it's growth to add biomass to my compost, to feed the chickens. I use it as chop and drop mulch. I add it to the under layers of a no-dig garden. I eat it.... It doesn't get much of a chance to get away in my garden. I always use Canna edulis though - this is the only edible one (QLD Arrowroot). It has a more clumping growth patterns than the other cannas. our permaculture lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14902659828176897984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-801030191087496810.post-16862242753894846242017-01-26T09:59:12.634+10:002017-01-26T09:59:12.634+10:00Morag what do you think about using Arrowroot as a...Morag what do you think about using Arrowroot as a windbreak?
