Plants make people happy
Happy Friday!
Hopefully you all had a great week and will be enjoying some well deserved time off!
If the rain grounds you and you're looking for your next project why not consider plants?
We have some premium grade indoor plants for sale on our website www.exoticplanters.co.nz... or some ex-rental plants at very affordable prices on Trade Me under Exotic Planters.
Plants are great for stress relief, cleaning up the air in your home and nothing is more satisfying then watching a plant grow just after you've cared for it 🌱
Ridiculous Fuel Pricing!
I opted to drive down 5kms to Waitomo Epsom, where fuel prices are lower compared to anywhere in Mount Roskill. On a full fuel tank of about 40 liters, you'll save around $8.5 overall, and this is without any discounts at Waitomo. Mobile Epsom is still cheaper, and the savings would have been $12 or more.
This math of pump pricing is beyond me as the source/starting point of the tankers is more or less the same and the suburbs aren't that far away 🤔.
What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
