Freshly picked peonys
This afternoon I have some freshly picked flowers. Coral Charm is the variety. A bright pink with yellow stamens. 6 buds per bunch-$10 Please have the correct change as there is an honesty box. There will be flowers daily this week from 10am to 8pm 32 OAKLAND STREET off Langdons Road. The Peonies are also available from Belfast Road and Island Road Kaiapoi (approx 2km off Tram Road).
There will be a limited supply of 3 other varieties this week. From next week Sarah Bernhardt will be available.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
