Learn How Native Planting Will Transform Your Gardening Life :)
EVENT IS FILLED - NO MORE SPACES AVAILABLE. You can keep at eye on our Eventbrite page to see if a spare space becomes available.
This is a FREE to attend event on 15 Dec at 10:30am. Though if you want to buy any of the plants at the nursery you'll need your EFTPOS card.
Did you know 80% of our trees, ferns and flowering plants are endemic (found only in New Zealand).
Fall in love with Aotearoa NZ plants! Our guide and plant guru Andrew's passion and insight will have you bursting with ideas. He'll introduce you to best practices both visually and practically when it comes to incorporating native plants into your garden.
If you like, bring along pictures of your garden as well. Andrew can figure out what will work for your soil type, sun position and lifestyle. We will be taken for a walking guided tour of all the fabulous native options available.
We will meet at Sievers Grove Nursery at 10:30am. Bring appropriate shoes and clothing to suit the weather. A great day to be shared with both beginner gardeners and experts alike.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
