As the leaves start to fall and the temperature cools down, it's the perfect time to plant new beds in your garden.

I'm available to plant out small garden beds right up to large hedges for added privacy. There a huge range of beautiful plants and trees to choose from, and I can help you select the perfect ones to suit your garden's unique style and needs.

Not only does autumn planting give your garden a fresh start for the new season, but it also helps ensure healthy growth for your plants come springtime. With cooler temperatures and ample rainfall, your new plants will have the perfect conditions to establish strong roots and thrive.

Don't wait until next year to start planning your dream garden! Contact The Urban Gardener today and let me help you make the most of this perfect planting season. 🌻🍁🍂🌳

The new range of Line7 performance workwear has been designed, developed and tested by you – New Zealand farmers.

We asked, listened, and collaborated directly with farmers in the making of this gear. We tested and re-tested in on-farm environments. We re-engineered what farming workwear can be with your needs front of mind. We brought our decades of experience creating world-class performance gear. Add to that a legacy of Kiwi innovation, a challenger spirit and a practical attitude that’s been part of Line 7 since we started back in 1963.

Every detail has been reviewed and refined – without overlooking the obvious. Breathable, flexible, functional and comfortable, while still being supremely durable and waterproof. Made to fit farmers of all shapes and sizes, with a dedicated range for women. Built to last, and last a bit longer still, with an included repair kit that means you can fix it up quickly yourself.

Now take it out there, try it on and put it to the test. Wear it out and wear it again. We’re pretty damn confident you won’t be disappointed.

Should the council get rid of the Mt Victoria olive trees?

Reporter The Post

Olive trees that produced an award-winning oil are on the chopping block, with Wellington City Council proposing to remove them from a central Wellington street. The tree roots are causing some real problems, but is that reason enough to chope them down and replace them?
