    Greetings,

    I have just done some extensive pruning on 2 twenty foot tall Juniper "Medora" trees.

    Under the trees is a large area of 3 or more inches of rich, black "soil" created from the tree "droppings"! I hate to NOT use it if I can.

    Is it safe to use this soil? If so, where would be the best place to use it - flowers, vegs, lawn...???
    Thanks, Andrea

    Other trees and shrubs - as a top dressing.
