The trouble with Cows






It didn't take much more than an unstable front gate and the herd of cows came in from the front paddock and rampaged thru the gardens at Rosewood!
Warren was on hand to help pick up overturned timber pedestals with the bromeliads.

The herd munched their way thru the mondo grass and seemed to have a preference for the colourful foilage of the cordyline plants.








The cows didn't keep to the paths but trampled thru the garden beds; their heavy hoofs leaving deep marks in the garden beds
Ever curious our bovine friends pulled out draceana plants without an apology!


 


and they grazed their way thru the bed of cannas ...



My only consolation to the destruction is that I will have my revenge by eating one of them and having slow roasted organic beef ! Meanwhile the clean-up continues and a new gate post and latch is needed!
