From 21 October, a one-way system will be in place with a detour route along Conclusion Street and Desert Gold Street.
Warspite Ave will be reduced to a single lane during the work, through the peaks and out of hours. This will result in significant journey time increase. Please find an alternative route wherever possible.

Name: Chelsea Gem.
I have had one growing in a pot for years happily, and does well in the ground also like most Geraniums.
Geraniums rather like the sun, and in a warm spot outside. perhaps under the eaves on the sunny side of the house, can grow through the winter .
This little plant is 14cms high and should double its height this year and throw out side shoots too. It should flower for you as well.
The plant for sale is in the blue pot.
I have not seen it for sale in nurseries.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.
Thanks for looking.

It should double its height this season, but probably won't flower for several years.
Lilacs are wonderfully win- hardy and grow in almost any soil. They are deciduous, and in the Spring come out with leaves and sprays of scented flowers. The flowers look great in a vase too.
The last pic is an 'aerial' view showing all the new shoots filling the pot. A nice healthy plant.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.
