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!

Have replaced these but there is still wear in them. You might need other pillow cases. Freshly washed. A dark green/grey that won't photograph well! Tried next to a grey blanket to better show colour but not really. Fitted sheet, flat sheet and 2 pillow cases in each set.

Will take to one of the Op Shops (if they'll have them) next week.
Pick up is central Masterton or if local, might be able to drop off.
This little Pompom bush is happy in its pot at the moment and should put on good growth this Summer once in the ground.
In the Spring this bush is covered with tennisball size white flowers resembling pompoms.
They are a deciduous bush.
The plant picture is the parent plant.

Shopping has become such a big part of our everyday lives, and the choices we make can influence more than we realise.
If you’d like to make those dollars work harder for our local communities, consider choosing small.

If you’d like to make those dollars work harder for our local communities, consider choosing small. Households spend more than $110 billion with big businesses each year. Shifting a portion of that toward small, local retailers can make a huge difference for the wider small-business economy.

The bearded iris flowering season is virtually over with all its beauty.
I have posted photos of part of my iris garden, for you to see if there is an iris there that you like. Also photos of the individual blooms. There may be a limited number of some of them.

I have posted photos of part of my iris garden, for you to see if there is an iris there that you like. Also photos of the individual blooms. There may be a limited number of some of them.
I can show you closeup photos on my ipad of every iris.
I have dwarf irises which grow about 30 cms high, medium height irises which are wind resistant but mostly the tall irises with flower stalks up to a metre high.
I will dig the bare rooted rhizomes and now is a good time to replant them.
I can give simple instructions if necessary but basically irises like the sun and soils that are not boggy. They are frost hardy and come up each year.
Thanks for looking

So we’re curious…

Removed Sunday 23rd Nov as my (Sandra) PC has been upgraded (George (husband) upgrades --> I (wife) get "hand me down").
