We help you get the most from your garden
Now is the time to plant trees and shrubs, sow veges and flowers, propagate and divide perennials, and sow green mulch in bare spaces.
Feed your plants and trees, prune certain shrubs and give hedges the last trim before spring. Also minimise overwintering fungi, vine hoppers, aphids and scale.
And weeding - there’s always weeding - to reduce competition among plants for precious resources.
We're back to work this week.

FREE 10-liter emergency water bottles
Merry Christmas -
I have around twenty, empty 10-liter distilled water bottles to serve as emergency water storage. I saved them for my friends, but they already have their own water supplies. Take as many as you like. Please respond to this notice if you are interested.
Best wishes - Michael
Some Choice News!
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!
