🌼 Surprising Spring Gardening Tip for NZ 🌼

Bury a banana peel near the roots of your rose bushes or tomato plants! πŸŒπŸŒΉπŸ… The peel releases potassium, phosphorus, and calcium as it decomposes, giving your plants a natural nutrient boost. It helps strengthen stems, promotes flowering, and even improves fruit quality. πŸŒΌπŸ…

Next time you snack on a banana, don't throw away the peel - use it to supercharge your garden!

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
