Gardening Tip:

Water your plants in the morning!

🌞💧 For healthier, happier plants, water them early in the morning. This gives them time to absorb the moisture before the sun gets too hot, reducing water loss through evaporation. It also helps prevent fungal growth, as the leaves have time to dry out.

🌿🌷 Give your garden a fresh start to the day, and watch it flourish!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.
