Peppy

Cedric was not feeling peppy when he woke up two hours before dawn.

"Busselton for example, you used to have these quarter-acre blocks with one big house on it and lots of peppy trees in the backyard. And now they've got three houses and no peppy trees," she said.

City engineering and works services director Oliver Darby told the Times three of the peppies had been lopped extensively and must now be removed along with the non-native, but transplantation of the remaining tree was being investigated.
