Veggie Plants Waikanae Market this Saturday
Garlic, spring onions, and celery
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. The price of garlic has gone through the roof, so secure your supply now.
Also celery, for a continuous supply, pick what you need, when you need it, not because you have a great lump festering in your vegie drawer.
And spring onions that are ready when you want them.
We'll be at the market Saturday unless the weather is too, too awful. Look for us partway down Park Avenue.
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 colour polyanthus, violas, pansies and daisies that will brighten up your garden beds, pots or just fill a few gaps and flower through until late spring.
See you Saturday, weather permitting!!!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
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!
