Native Plants and North Shore Wilds Gift Cards tomorrow
At last autumn rains have saturated the soil, loosening weeds and opening the soil for planting.
Tomorrow, Sunday 11th May (Mothers' Day), we will once again hold the North Shore Wilds roadside native plant stand at Gahnia Grove, our restoration site in Eskdale Reserve, (around 230 Glenfield Rd, near the petrol station).
Small Kawakawa from $3 each or 4 for $10, Carex flagellifera from $5, larger kawakawa and Carex $8 and $10, plus Scrambling Fuchsia and a few other bits and pieces.
Also for sale will be our specially printed Gift Cards for a home garden ecology assessment, discovering hidden and unknown native ground covers, grasses and shrubs, identifying the weeds, and suggesting a strategy of natural, low-energy techniques for replacement of weeds by a diverse, healthy native plant community, with specific techniques of manual weed control. for kikuyu, Tradescantia, ginger, privets, weed vines, or whatever you have.

The southbound clip-on lanes will be closed (24/7) from 26 December to 5 January for road resurfacing. Night-time lane restrictions will be in place throughout the summer for recoating work on the bridge. Traffic will still be able to travel in both directions at all times.
