An eye out for Deer damage 

The full weed range on offer in Manifest Destiny and the soil may be wet enough for easy extraction. Any fallen timber to be cut up by sawyers.
Check your favourite spot for Turkey Rhubarb, Asparagus & Passionfruit growth

2022 Springing back 

We have inserted an experimental Swamp Banksia into Manifest Destiny and there are still 4 or 5 other sapling trees needing protection so if anyone has some spare garden stakes/posts, we still have enough wire to fence them. 

On offer:

  • Velcro plant has reappeared beside cycleway, up near the bend
  • creek edge & back of beach have junk deposits from our throw-away society
  • some minor Turkey Rhubarb, Asparagus & Passionfruit growth along creek edge
  • The full weed range on offer in Manifest Destiny with conditions ideal for extraction & some fallen timber cutting up for the sawyers
  • a check along Stony Road & Woodlands Ck 


 
There has been further Deer damage, done this time to three native Hibiscus - they need a protective guard- and we lost an Illawarra Flame and a Bleeding Heart just across the ditch on Lisa's Site.
Cut them off below damage and they may re-shoot.

I'm thinking  Woodlands Ck .  Cassia & Coolatai also await your attention....and then there's the Stony Rd   Cassia  with pods. Watering is needed at our newest plantings so a trolley & containers would be great. there are still more Tuckeroo with red tape, often indicating a group.  Please cut them off at ground level before "painting" to avoid creating Trip Hazards. Andrew's Amnesia is due a visit. At least 8 of our usual su...
