I have put pictures of some of the Dwarf bearded irises that I have for sale at $8 for a little clump of at least two, probably more rhizomes. They will be trimmed and ready to plant and should put on good growth through the Summer, ready for flowering next season. They are already conditioned to the Wairarapa climate which is an advantage.
The dwarf Irises grow no taller than about 30 or 40 cms. I do have names for most of them.
They look lovely on a border edge, in a rockery, and do well in pots too.
Easy to grow , they do like a well drained position and at least 5 hours sun a day.
The Tall bearded irises are just coming into flower now and you are welcome to view those.
All the irises pictured here are dwarf to Medium sized irises. I plan to list the Talls later.
Thanks for looking.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.
Does anyone go here regularly or looking for a gift for someone? I'm about to move out of Carterton and have found a voucher I bought for myself (to force me to get pampered) but haven't used it. It's $100 voucher and would like to get at least $70 for it.

Hi,
does anyone know when rubbish will be collected in Carterton for Labour Weekend? Is it business as usual?
Thanks

Lavender is a member of the Lamiaceae family, which includes many indispensible culinary herbs, such as the mints, rosemary, thyme, basil, oregano and marjoram. Next time you’re out in your herb garden, take a close look at these herbs.
You’ll notice that their stems, rather than being round, are actually square, which is one of the distinctive characteristics of this illustrious family. Another characteristic, of course, is that all these herbs produce highly fragrant essential oils. It comes as no surprise, therefore, that lavender can be used in cooking.
Lavender can be substituted for any of these other herbs in cooking (except basil – I wouldn’t care to try a lavender pesto, but who knows?). It is, perhaps, most similar to rosemary or thyme, but imparts a delicate, floral flavour to dishes.
Would make a great gift for an international visitor!
Use in biscuit and cake recipes, ice cream, confectioneries, chocolates as well as spice rubs, rice and curries.
I also have culinary lavender oil for sale.
Have you got your gardens ready for the dry season? Apply mulch now to lock in the moisture and keep the unwanted weeds at bay. If applied at the right depth you wont need to worry about watering over summer! Order yours now! Call or txt me on 0212203694. Cheers. Nathan.

They want a sale and have instructed us to present all offers.
Beginning life as a renowned restaurant and currently operating very successfully as boutique accommodation, The Peppertree works very well as a function centre and would also make a superb cellar door. Located with State Highway frontage close to Blenheim and situated on the soon to open Picton to Kaikoura cycleway, it is ideally positioned to cash in on Marlborough’s growing tourism industry.
Each of the five beautifully appointed suites has been subtly themed, providing individual charm as well as comfort. The heart of the home is a spacious, recently renovated farmhouse kitchen enjoying garden and orchard views. A large wood burner with wetback and solar heats the water for a series of radiators around the house, ensuring warmth year-round.
Encompassing four hectares and featuring organically managed vineyard and gardens, fruit trees, berry patches, olives and grazing for sheep, cattle, and horses, The Peppertree is close to being self-sufficient. The extra land also offers an opportunity for future expansion and development.
The rateable value for land and improvements is $1,520,000.
All offers requested to be received by 4 pm Wednesday 27 November 2019.
For more information or an appointment to view, please contact Michal or Tim.
It’s time to re-home our classic old couch. It’s in really good order with beautiful heavy floral fabric and measures 210cm long and is almost a metre high and deep. Comes with matching foot stool and cushions. It’s large and heavy and will need to be picked up from central Masterton.

We’re hoping to re-home it in return for a donation to the Sarah Ward Fundraiser. Sarah is a local teenager who became a tetraplegic after an accident this year.
Please PM me if you are interested in knowing more or viewing. Thanks, Lisa

Hi, just wondered if anybody knew about the jet which was doing loops and stuff over the farmland between Greytown and Woodside. Quite enjoyable to watch if not a little breath taking at times. Was so low but no identifiable markings so we don't think it was RNZAF but perhaps a private … View moreHi, just wondered if anybody knew about the jet which was doing loops and stuff over the farmland between Greytown and Woodside.
