Bamboo poles and bean plants. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Sharon from Te Atatu South

My new freshly-cut (from the backyard of someone on Titirangi Facebook page!) green bamboo poles holding up my garden shades (old poles were rotten at the base & one broke in the storm the other night ๐Ÿ˜› ), and dwarf beans (from someone else on Titirangi Facebook page!) newly planted in the vege garden bed by the back door - splattered with liquid seaweed fertiliser and then watered. That's why they look a bit all-over-the-place, but they should right themselves again soon. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.

John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcutโ€™s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharpโ€”whether itโ€™s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say heโ€™s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!

John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
