WE were recently at Suella and John’s garden. This is a most interesting garden with a lot of different plants; Jackfruit Perennial onions, beautiful dark red Camellia Passionfruit, great bamboo and produces a great variety of fruit, vegetables and ornamentals. One of the most important things is that they make their own compost by turning it over and making sure it is at the right temperature and moisture. Seeing the results of composting has made this a most productive garden. Well done Suella and John!
Our guest was Sue Robbie from the Co-op and she discussed the type of weed killer that would be the best for any individual to use on all the weeds that have invaded our gardens.
It was most interesting, if you would like some advice on what weed killer would suit your needs, talk to Sue at the Co-op.
We also had two overseas guests who were on a working holiday and were helping with gardening for a few days. Jude was from France and she was travelling around the world and doesn’t know when she’ll be home. Raquel was from Costa-Rica, and she was learning about Horticulture and hoped to land a stable job. She said she would be going home later in the year, it was very interesting talking to them. For enquiries, email Rod Baldwin on rodsplace112@gmail.com
