The inventive concept is directed toward a system for collecting trimmings that is used and placed under bushes to be trimmed. The system consists of a sheet to be placed under the bush. The sheet has a cut starting at an edge of the sheet and is directed toward the center of the sheet. At the center of the sheet, a circle is formed which will surround the trunk of the bush when the sheet is installed. The edges of the cut are surrounded by a border or tape including the circle to prevent the edges from fraying and to identify the opening. The border tape adheres to both sides of the sheet. The outer corners of the cut at the outer edge are are closed by a closing system.
