Veggie Plants Waikanae Market this Saturday plus potted colour to brighten your day
It's time to start thinking about your spring garden!
The weather has been against garlic planters: too much moisture. Cloves have rotted in the ground. We have well established plants ready to go into your garden beds and ramp away.
Also parsley, celery, spring onions and a limited amount of broccoli cabbages, cauli, pak choy and silverbeet.
Looking for a bit of brightness in your flower beds or some pots on the doorstep? We all need a bit of cheering up. We have large potted polyanthus, violas, and pansies that will brighten up your garden beds, pots or just fill a few gaps and flower through until late spring. Pansies must go this weekend - we need the space!
Look for our stall partway down Park Avenue.

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
