We recently introduced new plants in our nursery, now it's time to spread them into your gardens.
This weekend we present you Dwarf Toe Toe.
It is a popular grass plant native to New Zealand, usually found in our coastal regions. The plant was originally used to line walls and ceilings of early Māori homes.

Currently in our nursery are 68 miniature Toe Toe, also known as Chionochloa Flavicans.
We recommend planting these along hedges or to fill up empty spaces in your garden.

The plant’s most recognisable features are its heavenly cream-coloured plumes and weeping green leaves. They will grow up to 1 metre tall and can support all types of rough weather conditions. Although, perhaps the most appealing aspect of having Toe Toe in your garden is how low maintenance they are. Toe Toe leaves can be left untrimmed and their plumes untouched with little effect on their overall appearance.

So if you’re looking for a native, low maintenance and visually stunning plant, the miniature Toi Toi may be the one for you.

DON’T FLUSH NAPPY WIPES ETC. Sewer main blocked and overflowing into stream

The sewer main by my house behind Korokoro school is blocked because of residents in Korokoro and possibly Maungaraki flushing things down the toilet they shouldn't.

Please can everyone pass on the request to all residents (anywhere really) to not flush anything, sanitary products, nappy wipes, incorrectly named 'flushable' wipes, nothing should go in there except body waste and toilet paper. Roots grow into the pipes and these things snag, then build up and then overflow out of the manhole covers.

Raw sewage is pouring down the hill into the stream. The smell is overpowering and disgusting. It makes me really sad thinking of all that raw sewage going down the lovely wee stream into the valley. All the ecosystems polluted, the health risks, the smell. It’ll take months of rain to wash it all away. Please encourage all residents you know to not flush these things that block the sewers. Even if it says it is flushable it is not. 😩😥

There is excrement, tampons, nappy wipes strewn all over the ground and hillside and foul-smelling water is pouring down the bank. So gross!

This has happened quite a few times before, it was registered as happening 5 or 6 times before we bought the house on our LIM report, and it happened 3 or4 times right after we moved in 4ish years ago until they fixed one part of the sewer main pipe. So it is a frequent reoccurring problem.

Here is a dropbox link to a video of the overflow: www.dropbox.com...
