Hedge trimming needed

Alesha from Saint Andrews

Hi, I was about to rent a hedge trimmer from hire pool for a quick job and saw there pricing! I realised it might be a better idea to see if anyone owns a trimmer and would like to do the job for the $50 I was going to spend renting it. It’s only a few camellia bushes that need a tidy up and figured the money is better in someone’s pocket rather than a big franchise.

Here’s the bushes that need trimming. Ignore the lawns we’re mowing them tomorrow 😂 also open to borrowing someone’s trimmer if they’re happy to lend!

We’re in Saint Andrews (neighbourly hasn’t updated my address.)

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!
