Plant supports

I have a stool of Ash, part of what was our overgrown hedge line. I'm trying to keep it under control so it doesn't take over again. I effectively coppice it now for either garden canes (can usually get a few 3m canes a year) or if left longer kindling. They last very well so don't need replacing too often.

We had some ash trees cut down and my husband was hoping to be able to cut them for kindling but only one survived! We get lots of ash seedlings and I'm forever digging them out - maybe I should group them together and try to use them for cutting.
