This invention relates to an improved lawn mower construction adapted for cutting vegetation into pieces and delivering the cut vegetation pieces into a disposable flexible air impervious baglike receptacle for disposal of the cut vegetation pieces. The lawn mower includes a housing having a plurality of wheels movably supporting the housing. A prime mover, such as, a gasoline internal combustion engine is mounted on the housing. The prime mover has a drive shaft drivingly connected thereto. A cutting blade is connected to the shaft. The cutting blade is mounted in the housing for cutting vegetation under the housing and throwing the cut vegetation pieces toward the outer periphery of the housing. A blower impeller is mounted on the drive shaft within the housing for blowing air out of the housing. A junction is a part of the housing for receiving air and cut vegetation pieces propelled by the blade and air blown by the impeller for moving the cut vegetation pieces. A conduit is connected to the junction for carrying the cut vegetation pieces in an upward direction. A head is connected to the upper end of the conduit. The head includes a diffuser to allow air to leave the head and to allow cut vegetation pieces to drop down due to gravity. An air impervious disposable flexible baglike receptacle is connected to the head for receiving the cut vegetation pieces dropping from the diffuser to collect the cut vegetation pieces.
