Headstones @ Taita Cemetery
I just visited my nana's gravesite yesterday, and I know it's been a while. However on my visit I was sad and disheartened to see her hers and many other headstones covered in moss/lichen. It was raining lightly so I used my fingers to rub away at the moss/lichen which came off ok. When the weather clears I'm going back with hot soapy water and a toothbrush to finish cleaning it. 😇 Can I please suggest if anyone hasn't been to visit a loved one @ Taita Cemetery please do so, and help out by cleaning their headstone and perhaps the neighbouring ones. No tools are required, just water and a cloth and/or an old toothbrush.
Picture below shows moss/lichen.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
