Name : Orbea Variegata

The plant on sale is the last one potted in the black plastic pot with the flowers. It could well flower this year.

These succulents don't really like direct sunlight, but they are drought tolerant and easy care. Christmas present maybe.

Pickup is in Kuripuni.
Thanks for looking.

Advice needed on caring for olive trees

We’ve recently planted 18 olive trees. We’re starting to get some disease on the leaves (see the pictures) and we’re keen to get some advice on how to treat and look after the trees properly.

We’ve recently planted 18 olive trees. We’re starting to get some disease on the leaves (see the pictures) and we’re keen to get some advice on how to treat and look after the trees properly.

We planted the trees to help give us some protection from the wind and add some height in our garden. If we get any fruit from them then that would be great but that’s not the priority for us.

If anyone can provide us with some advice on how we should be looking after these trees that would be really appreciated.

Hi everyone,
With Christmas fast approaching, we'd be keen to hear from those who spend the festive season (or part of it) away each year. Where do you go and why? What makes it such a great place to be at this time of year? What are you most looking forward to about the trip? Any words of advice you may have on things to do or places to eat or drink in the area would also be much appreciated. As usual, please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it included in a travel article. Cheers.

Don't lock your children or pets in a car over summer

Now that summer has arrived, it is worth remembering that it is not a good idea to leave children in cars. The Automobile Association has issued a plea for people not to lock children and pets in cars in a warning that gets more-urgent as summer months set in.
The AA gets called out for about 760 call-outs for children locked in cars and 650 for pets every year.
On a 30C day, the temperature inside a vehicle can reach 39C in less than five minutes; in 30 minutes, it will be 49°C,”

Once they’re established, it’s almost impossible to remove them and the pests can squeeze the life out of our most precious rivers and lakes. We all need to do our bit to protect waterways by always checking, cleaning, then drying any equipment that comes into contact with the water, between every waterway, every time.
