Trees in Farnborough Drive

Di from Nawton

I notice that the trees in Farnborough Drive, between Dominion Rd roundabout & Baverstock Drive have been removed.
While I know these have been responsible for causing problems with the footpath I can't help but be a bit sad at their loss. In Spring the flowers were beautiful, in Summer they provided shade & a sense of coolness, in Autumn they were beautiful ( & yes I know the leaves were probably annoying to residents!), & in Winter they held the promise of things to come..........And they were beloved by birds & bees alike. The street now just looks bare & lacks character. Let's hope this isn't a sign of what is in store for the rest of the suburbs.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
