After a hot cuppa and some nice morning tea, we gather around John`s fire pit to keep warm and discussed our gardens.
Joy read a letter from Carolyn all about her garden. We found the garden very neat and tidy with flowering hedges and roses.
Joy has Guave plants fruiting will save us some seeds.
Denise catching up with the pruning, has grevillea flowering. She brought some weigelia cutting.
Allen has roses still flowering and been busy planting bulbs.
Maria still planning the foundation of the garden. Making a green wall on the north wall. She asked if she put blood and bone around her garden would the dogs dig it up. (Yes.)
Sandra still planting trees and digging weeds. Trees are doing fine.
Kevin says parsnips growing well, picked some small butternuts, had a good supply of beans and tomatoes, also a medium jam melon and a few spuds.
Bruce planning a no work garden, still trying, (using a lot of Roundup.) Planted pumpkin in old chook house, started to run but spilt because of all the rain. Still having trouble with the Gum trees being attacked by the Christmas beetles. He had a glut of Kumquats, made marmalade.
Shirley cactus growing fine, wombat keeping the grass down.
Lloyd erected a garden shed- mounted strawberry pots on the back wall. Irene still replanting roses from the garden to pots.
Cheerio to Jackie who is having a spell in hospital.
I hope John and Carolyn son is on the mend soon.
Our sincere sympathy to Thoreen & Ron on the passing of their daughter Deb.
Next meeting is at St. Barts church Windellama Tuesday 4th July starting at 10am to do general cleanup. Please bring your garden tools and some morning tea. If we get rained out again, we will meet at Lloyd and Irene's place instead.
