Bare rooted plants are a great choice for planting in the winter as they will establish quickly. Root system is very strong with many side shoots.

LARGE GRADE $2.50 (approx 30cm tall)

MEDIUM GRADE $2.00 (approx 20cm tall)

A box hedge is closely planted, 5 or 6 per metre is ideal. It is much easier to get even spacing by putting plants into a trench than by digging holes. Use a line to make sure they are planted in a straight row and space the plants at 17-20cm intervals.

Price: $2.50

It was made from a pair of jeans from an op shop. "All of my gardening clothes come from op shops," she says. "Large men's shirts make good cover-ups to keep sun and insects off my arms. For the apron, start with a smaller size than you would wear so it doesn't wrap around too far. Check that it has a lot of pockets." So tell us if you've got similarly fashionable, exclusive-for-the-garden glad rags, and if yes, why not post a photo in the Reply space too!
