Janet and her husband both enjoy tending to their garden and shared this about their garden:
"We are both in our eighties and have lived in the Ngaio Marsh Retirement Village for three and a half years. Our passion for gardening spans many years. We change our display every six months to cover Spring and Summer.
The residents in the village regularly bring their visitors to see our display and take plenty of photographs. When you hear comments such as “It lifts my spirits when I get to this corner” you realise how much it means to everyone. We will continue to create a beautiful garden for as long as we are able."
Click on the photos below to have a good look! And give Janet's garden a Like below if you think they've done a great job.

🛒 Pro Tip for Seniors Shopping for One 💜
Losing a loved one changes so many daily routines—including grocery shopping. If you're now buying for one instead of two, here are some ways to make it easier:
✨ Shop with a friend – Turn grocery shopping into a social outing to make it feel less overwhelming.
🥦 Buy fresh but in smaller quantities – This helps avoid waste while still enjoying fresh produce.
🛍️ Use the deli & bulk bins – Buy only what you need instead of pre-packaged portions.
🍲 Cook & freeze meals – Prepare meals in advance so you have easy, home-cooked options ready.
💡 Try meal kits or smaller portion services – These can help simplify cooking without excess leftovers.
Most importantly, be kind to yourself—adjusting takes time. 💜
