Dumping your garden rubbish in the countryside like this risks introducing plants that can spread to woodland habitats and in time might come to dominate the ground flora. The main invasive plant species such as himalayam balsam and Japanese knotweed started as garden escapees, but there are a number of lesser species as well. Although there does not appear to be anything other than cypress and juniper cittings in this pile, you can see below that a garden escapee is already growing at this spot.
