PAEONY GRAFTING WORKSHOP This Monday Evening
The new Christchurch Paeony club is holding a Grafting Workshop.
You could make your own Tree Paeonies!
This will be held at 7pm on Monday 9th August at the Kiosk in the Botanic Gardens.
An experienced Paeony grower from Dunedin will demonstrate the art of grafting Tree Paeonies onto Herbaceous Paeony tubers.
Attendees can try their hand at grafting and will learn how to care for the graft until it is established. The cost is only $5.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
