    Never heard it called anything other than furze...

    And when burnt, as it was every year - the black sticks collected for the fire were called ‘spánach’ :)
    Only ever known as furze around here too. But then again there’s crazy people all over the country that call a fork a pike so I suppose anything’s possible!!

    That’s a funny name for a big fish or a big pointy weapon for killing us poor aul Wexford Protestants!

    Used mulsher here,the one on Tractor machine.Following year spot spray with Roundup.If possible I'd put out perhaps 10,10,20.Shud get grass moving & keep furze down.Quick job is ripping them out ,but they grow back quickly.
