Finding the treasure hidden in Tradescantia

Jenny from

We love finding the treasures that hide in Tradescantia until their release, especially native ferns like this "Shaking brake" (Pteris tremula). The fern sporeling shown below is one of hundreds of native seedlings and sporelings that germinated under the low loose ground cover provided by Tradescantia, and was released not by us, but by the owner, who recognised the potential of a weedy area under native tree canopy.

It inspired this post: northshorewilds.co.nz...

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
