We don't seem have much in the way of garden centres in UH these days,
BUT .... I just have to alert you all to wonderful selection of trees, shrubs,
bushes, annuals etc in Kaitoke.
I visited there today with a friend, and was extremely impressed by the range of species and the reasonable prices, not to mention the "specials".
Sadly I am not able to fit another plant on my property - but thought I would remind everyone of the existence of this highlight.
If you are looking for something different to enhance your property - head north and go see for yourself.
AND ... as you walk around the site keep your eyes open around the area for some unusual surprises. eg: What do you think a Holly Bush looks like? Go see for yourself :-)

Remutaka MP and State Services Minister Chris Hipkins would like to see civil servants move to Upper Hutt.

Hipkins says hubs outside Wellington would take pressure off existing offices in Wellington..

Wellington’s public sector employs about 27,000, while there are about 37,000 in the private sector. A Cabinet paper tabled last year revealed the State Services Commission wanted to “reduce the footprint” of government workers in the Wellington and Auckland regions, and move agencies elsewhere when possible.

What do you think of moving some state servants to Upper Hutt?
