My rose, pansy and vegetable gardens I planted out yesterday. 😃
Planted out the pansy garden and part of the rose (& geranium!!!!! as it seems they have taken over) garden yesterday, and I also planted out tomatoes and lettuces in my veggie gardens. 😃 Last photo is a white cyclamen I planted after I dug out the tuber of an old rotten one - I wondered why it wasn't doing so well!!!!!!!! =P Got up today and took these photos, as by the time I had finished weeding, planting, fertilising and watering, it was too dark to take proper photos. =P Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😃

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!
