Old Auckland Fruit Trees

Rowan from Mount Roskill

Kia ora,
I’m looking to preserve old Fruit tree species from around Auckland. I’m keen to know if anyone has amazing old trees in their back yards that I could get some grafts from. The older the tree the better.
Also at the moment while peaches are growing, I’m interested in peach stones grown from awesome or unique trees grown in Auckland. Peaches grow reasonably true to seed and they would be easy for schools to plant. Please save your stones and contact me if you have some. 🍑

Some Choice News!

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!
