Fuschia....SOLD PENDING PICKUP. hardy old type - Apricot/pink - potted

Joan from Masterton District

This Fuschia comes from an original plant growing in my childhood home in Christchurch, over 70 years ago.
It is a heavy flowering Fuschia, apricot/pink in colour, and does well where other Fuschias might give up.

Fuschias do tend to like shade and dampish conditions, but once established this one will tolerate drier soils.

The plant for sale is the last one in the round black 13cm plastic pot.

Thanks for looking.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.

Price: $8

Shona McFarlane Retirement Village

Moving to a retirement village marks the beginning of a new chapter filled with opportunities waiting to be explored. Naturally, you want to share this journey with your beloved furry companion, and at Ryman, you are welcome to bring your pet along, provided they are suitable for the village environment.

Once your pet is approved for the village, the focus shifts to ensuring a smooth transition for them. Dogs and cats, being creatures of habit, may find relocating stressful. However, with patience and a thoughtful approach, we can mitigate their anxiety and help them settle into their new surroundings seamlessly.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
