Learn to recognise wild natives among your weeds, and weeds among your trees and shrubs

Do you recognise the native wild plants and the destructive weeds presently growing wild in your garden?

The cost and effort of saving your garden and buildings from tree, shrub and vine weeds can be avoided if you recognise the weeds early. The largest, most costly invasions all started as wild seedlings introduced by wind or birds, as ornamental plantings before the plant's invasive quality in NZ was widely recognized, or on neighbouring properties.

The impact of these plants only becomes obvious once they overrun your hedge, driveway, plantings, or buildings.

Group learning sessions can be arranged in a Reserve or private garden, to help you recognise both the free native wild plants and the destructive weeds on your own property.

As plants and demonstration of manual control methods need to be seen close up, and all participants need to be able to ask their questions, each group will be limited to 3 to 6 people, at a cost of $20-30 depending on numbers.

If you would like to subscribe to one of these sessions, please email jenny@northshorewilds.nz, message me here at www.neighbourly.co.nz..., or phone 021485994.

Let's get those weeds cut, piled and safely composted while we have the wet conditions ideal for decomposition!
