No weekend pick ups sorry or after 5.30pm.

I'm clearing out my excess plants before the planting rush in spring. It's first in first served and items won't be held so be quick to get the best choices. New plants and bulbs added everyday and many more than shown. Please note that the plants will be smaller versions of the bigger ones shown. Many of the pots have multiple plants/bulbs yet still count as one plant so you get even more of a bargain.

For every three that you buy I'll give you a choice of two other free plants from a selection on the day you pick up. You therefore get 5 plants for $1 total.

The controversial relocation of Christchurch's Citizens' War Memorial has received financial backing for a proposed move to Cranmer Square.

The Christchurch Earthquake Appeal Trust (CEAT), set up to administer post-earthquake donations, has confirmed it will "support" the removal of the 82-year-old cenotaph, which has stood alongside Christ Church Cathedral since 1937, if resource consent is approved.

Moving the 300-tonne cenotaph is estimated to cost up to $1.5 million, but CEAT secretary Neil Cooper would not say how much the trust would cover "as we've not made this figure public yet".
