Hey there all gardeners, time for some more hints and tips to help with any garden queries you might have. Gardening should be a very therapeutic activity, and it is.....but we are saddled with extreme heat, erratic rain, water restrictions, the quandary of more hard landscaping and less soft to save water, rising costs etc, which make our decisions harder with regards to what we do.
Take heart, here are some interesting tips to think about which can save money.

1. Plants you can use to keep bugs away :

Rosemary - fleas, ticks
Peppermint - spiders, mozzies, ants
Catnip - mozzies
Marigold - mozzies, aphids
Bazil - mozzies, houseflies
Lavender - moths, fleas, flies, mozzies

2. Natural turf/lawn is an incredible material, a healthy lawn can survive on just 25mm of water per week.
It can also absorb 20,000l in a single instance before reaching its limit.
This makes natural turf/lawn a champion in helping to prevent floods over large areas.
Yet as more gardens get covered in concrete, plastic turf or paving it increases our flooding risk.
Rather opt for natural and let our lawns be the earth's sponge.

All the best and happy gardening

Hi there all you greenfingers, with summer upon us we're spending more and more time outdoors either working or relaxing.
There's nothing more relaxing than the sound of running water while chilling outside, whether it's a small water feature, a stream or a small aerated pond. Please remember that still standing water will attract mozzies so it's essential to keep the water moving via a small pump.
Water features are ideal for planting various water plants and adding a few fish to keep the water clear. The Hadedas and Kingfishers will love you so it's preferable to pull a net over it.
If you're in the market for a water feature please don't hesitate to contact us.
Have a wonderful weekend and happy gardening.

Good afternoon all you avid gardeners, after the good rain we received the lawns are starting to green up nicely. If you're thinking of fertilizing your lawn I would suggest you look at something like 2:3:2 or Superphosphate or one of the organics like Bounce back. We need to stimulate root growth to wake the grass up. Avoid high nitrogen content fertilizers as they will burn your lawn if there is insufficient rain or you don't have an irrigation system. Remember to check your local schedule for watering times should you have water restrictions.
Should you require a quote for an irrigation system, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Stay safe and happy gardening.
