Hi Hamilton,

Should New Zealanders be better educated on the behaviour of potentially dangerous wildlife?

While shark attacks are rare in New Zealand waters, it pays to remain vigilant if you are in the water Niwa expert Warrick Lyon says.

He states that people should refrain from swimming in deep channels of water where shallow water meets deep water in reef drop offs with one Department of Conservation expert advising against swimming at dusk.

It is easy to grow as you just needs leave it to dry for a few days and then stick in a pot or the ground. The key is to make sure you don’t dig it in too deep as it will cause it to rot.

Open to offers for the entire plant or for fresh cuttings. I also have two sections drying that would be ready to be planted mid January.

Cuttings can be posted at buyers cost.

We’ve been dreaming of relaxing at this colourful retro Kāpiti bach which features in our January issue. It’s the perfect sanctuary for its Wellington owners, who find themselves unwinding as soon as they walk through its front gate. Where's your favourite place to unwind over the summer?
