This is a tough one, neighbours, can you figure out all of them?

Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

Before any changes, I’m a garlic or spice.
My first is altered and I’m a hand-warming device.
My second is changed and I’m trees in full bloom.
The next letter change makes a deathly old tomb.
Change the fourth to make a fruit of the vine.
Change the last for a chart plotted with lines.
What was I? What did I become? What did I turn out to be?

Do you think you know the answer to our daily riddle? Don't spoil it for your neighbours! Simply 'Like' this post and we'll post the answer in the comments below at 2pm.

Poll: Have you kept trinkets from your life?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Many of us are sentimental about our childhoods and lives, and some even collect things to remember moments or people.

Share what you've held on to over the years and whether you still have it today. Feel free to share photos too, we'd love to see.
