Contact with water affected by blooms of blue-green algae can cause asthma and hayfever attacks in some individuals.

Christmas is supposed to be the jolliest time of year - full of whimsical family reunions, selfless gift-giving and Masterchef-worthy feasts.
But sometimes this just isn't captured on camera. We're after those amazingly awkward Christmas moments that have been captured on film.
Maybe it was the time you went to visit Santa and your little one didn't want a bar of it. Maybe it was a self-timed family shot that went horribly awry. Or a Christmas meal that was more a festive fail.
Whatever the not-so-merry moment, we want to see it! Share your pictures and a little bit about them with us in Stuff Nation. We look forward to seeing them! Here's the link to contribute.

We love poppies, and this Tibetan blue (Meconopsis betonicifolia) is especially eye-catching. They are available from a number of nurseries, including Blue Mountain in Tapanui.
