20.01.2022 The only kind of snail we want lurking among our ornamental kale...

20.01.2022 An iconic duo? We think so! Pulmonaria and Lamium can be used to beautiful effect in mixed borders; brightening shaded areas with their eye catching silvery and deep green foliage. On their own, each plant is a lovely feature in it’s own right.... Lamium ‘Stormy Frost’ makes a perfect ground cover, and also stands out when grown in hanging baskets. Hardy and low-maintenance, they require moderate watering through the warmer months. Pulmonaria ‘Diana Clare’ is a lovely contrast plant, with it’s violet-blue flowers and silver-sheened leaves. Well suited to pots and planters, or grown in shady beds with companion plants such as Hostas

19.01.2022 If you’ve ever wanted to grow your own garlic, now is the time! Our new stock has just arrived- with Dunganski, Spanish Rojo and Lokalen varieties available. Garlic likes a sunny position, well draining soil and thrives in Tasmania’s cool climate. Hooray! When planting, always face the flat end into the earth and it’s point up. You can plant a surprising amount in a small space, just leave enough room for each bulb to grow to maturity.

18.01.2022 We are open this Recreation Day public holiday

16.01.2022 It’s time to Spring Clean your plants! We recommend using the first few weeks of September to give your houseplants some TLC, before the warmer days have you spending all of your time outdoors. Start by cleaning the foliage of your ‘smooth leaf’ plants, we find the shower to be an ideal way to manage this. Then you can move onto repotting plants that have outgrown their current home. Lastly, topdress and apply fertiliser, or entirely replace the potting mix for your remaining plants. This will add to their general health and encourage lush growth for the coming seasons.

15.01.2022 Maintenance The beginning of Spring is the perfect time to give some attention to decks/patios in readiness for entertaining when the weather warms up! To restore areas that have become slippery or unsightly due to a bloom of lichen, moss or algae over winter, pick up a bottle of ‘Wet & Forget’ the next time you’re in store. It is safe to use on any exterior surface and once dried, is harmless to pets.

14.01.2022 Oh baby! Bottle babies are here again in all their cute glory Peperomia, Begonia, Syngonium, Ficus and more Available only while stocks last!

14.01.2022 Pretty Primula Practically dancing in the sunshine, after yesterday’s dark and dreary weather! Primula Obconica grow well both indoors and out. They make a great bedding plant in areas with good morning sunlight, or in the dappled shade around trees.

14.01.2022 We’ve gone a bit fruity! Norfolk Island Black Passionfruit - produces sweet, orange centred fruits with a dark glossy skin. This vine is loved for it’s prolific fruiting habit and attractive deep green foliage. Watermelon - growing watermelon in Tasmania is considered a bit of a novelty. But if you have the space, with full sun, then there is nothing better than cutting open a home grown melon at the end of summer! ... Cape Gooseberries - this fascinating fruit is beginning to find popularity amongst home gardeners. It’s berries grow inside their papery ‘capes’ and are sweet and aromatic when ripe. Can be eaten fresh, straight from the bush (rather like blueberries) or made into the delightful gooseberry jam.

09.01.2022 ... November in the Garden ... Maintain Keep on top of weeding, a little each week goes a long way. Top up the mulch on your beds, and top dress pots and planters; not only does it look attractive, it also adds much needed nutrients to the soil as we head into the warmest months. We recommend checking your grafted fruit trees at this time of year and removing any suckers/shoots below the graft.
