NZ Gardener's new issue is out now

Jo McCarroll - NZ Gardener editor Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

We are (very) excited to say that the May issue of NZ Gardener is on sale today, and absolutely packed with the good stuff!

Lynda Hallinan reflects on 60 lessons for gardeners from the lockdown (with plenty of idea on what you can sow and grow in May); there's a bumper gardening quiz; we suggest five herbs to reduce anxiety and promote calmness; and visit a Taupo sanctuary full of art and alive with native birds and a wild and wonderful garden in Glenorchy. And since we've been gardening in isolation, Jack Hobbs talks to gardeners on the Chatham Islands about how they keep things growing, 650km from the nearest garden centre. Normally our subscribers get their copy before it goes on sale, of course, but things aren't quite normal right now so if your copy hasn't arrived yet, it should be with you very soon! We are so pleased to have a new issue of your favourite magazine for you, and I cannot wait to hear what you think. NZ Gardener has been informing and inspiring New Zealand gardeners for more than 75 years and we're incredibly grateful to our readers, especially our subscribers, because we couldn't do it without you. And by the way subscribing is easy and a much cheaper way to get your magazine each month! And would an NZ Gardener sub make a great Mother's Day gift this Sunday, you ask? I think we all know the answer to that! Jo

Business in Auckland CBD could suffer more than 12,400 job losses by March 2021 due to the impact of coronavirus, a report predicts.
The report, by independent economists Strateg.Ease, said it could take at least two years for business in the city centre to recover from the effects of Covid-19.
It also predicted a loss of $3.1 billion of gross domestic product (GDP) - the market value of goods produced in the city.
The outlook was "significantly worse" than the Global Financial Crisis of 2007/8, when jobs fell by 4400, the report stated.
"Tourism, hospitality, entertainment, arts and culture and retail - the businesses that give the heart of our city its vitality and distinct character - are amongst the worst affected," said Heart of the City chief executive Viv Beck.
