Gutter Weeds...
I hope everyone is having a great New Year and are keeping safe during this Summer storm 🌧🌦
At least the gutter weeds will be enjoying the rain...
Seriously though, I've been monitoring them over the last couple of months, hoping that they would be dealt with in time for Christmas, but no such luck. 🌱🌱🌱🌱
On the North Shore, Ventia have the contract to kill weeds in the road corridor (gutters, roundabouts, traffic islands) using hot water or foam, but it doesn't seem to be getting done at all. This should be routinely done and not rely on the public complaining.
I haven't noticed the weeds like this in other parts of Auckland...

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!
