When you're out and about this summer, look out for the invasive weed sea spurge.
Sea spurge invades the shores just above the high tide mark, disrupts sand dunes, and stops native plants from being able to grow.
The fast spreading weed can ravage a whole area in a short space of time.

Sea spurge invades the shores just above the high tide mark, disrupts sand dunes, and stops native plants from being able to grow.
The fast spreading weed can ravage a whole area in a short space of time.
The Department of Conservation and the Ministry for Primary Industries have urged people to report any sightings.
Its sap is toxic to humans and animals and can cause skin irritations, or temporary blindness if you get it in your eyes.
So don't try to remove it if you do spot it.
Sea spurge looks like a small shrub which can grow up to about half a metre high.
It has multiple steams which are reddish at the base and spiky, tightly packed blue/green leaves and greenish flowers.
What to do this summer if you think you've found sea spurge:
Don't disturb the sea spurge plants as it could spread the seeds.
Don't cut sea spurge or try to remove it; its sap is toxic.
Take a photo of the location and a close-up of the plants.
Try and get your location as accurate as possible and note it down.
Call the MPI exotic pest line on 0800 80 99 66.

While Palo Santo is a mystical tree that grows on the coast of South America, Copal is a resin, once considered as sacred by Mayans & Aztecs in Mexico and Central America. These sticks wonderfully combine the balsamic, herbal scent of Palo Santo wood with the sweet, piney smell of Copal, enhancing concentration and bringing peace & harmony.

Hi, my neighbours
I heard Auckland Wharf might be moved to another city.
What will happen to the Aucklanders? Do you think Auckland Council should make a decision by themselves or let the public to vote?
Hi Neighbours, people often ask me what it’s like to do a mindfulness course. Luckily, Angela Barnett wrote an article about her experience of taking part in the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction course that I teach. It is a really great read, open, amusing, and insightful.

What should Auckland Council prioritise this year?
Auckland Council plans to halve greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and is set to be one of the biggest challenges that is facing council leaders in 2021.
The Auckland Climate Plan is set to be released to the public for consultation in February, with Councillors already opting for the smaller of the two climate budget proposals.
Water management, both water access and waste water systems are also set to come under review, with Watercare scaling back many projects, which may end up postponing completion by a number of years.
