🌼 Surprising Spring Gardening Tip for NZ 🌼
Bury a banana peel near the roots of your rose bushes or tomato plants! 🍌🌹🍅 The peel releases potassium, phosphorus, and calcium as it decomposes, giving your plants a natural nutrient boost. It helps strengthen stems, promotes flowering, and even improves fruit quality. 🌼🍅
Next time you snack on a banana, don't throw away the peel - use it to supercharge your garden!

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!
