Can Brambles Compost

Brambles make good compost when put through a shredder and mixed with grass cuttings.

Can you use Brambles as mulch?

It is important to remove as much of the below-ground parts as possible, as brambles have the ability to regenerate from well below soil level. Seedlings should be weeded out by hand. Stems and roots shaken free of soil can be finely shredded and used as a mulch.
