Q&A August 22, 2023

Check out this week’s Q&A and learn who will win the prize, donated by The Plant Runner at https://theplantrunner.com/

In this week’s Q&A we learn that:

• The Jacaranda is actually an evergreen tree
• There's no need to add worms to a wicking bed
• Plant Feijoa “Duffy” with another pollinating variety such as Apollo, Mammoth or Nazematze
• Kocide or lime sulphur are an easier choice than old fashioned Bordeaux spray for fruit trees
• Possums and rats can feast on daffodils – who knew?
• Seaside Daisy – try, test and learn for suitability in areas with kangaroos and rabbits
• Planning to scale is the key to a well designed garden
• Pampas Grass – definitely NOT a favourite for Keith! Choose a hybridised grass instead!

Keith recommends:

Whoflungdung mulch - https://neutrog.com.au/2019/08/20/whoflungdung/

Daley’s Fruit Tree Nursery - https://www.daleysfruit.com.au/

Shepherd’s Nursery Balnarring

Miscanthus sinensis hybridised forms such as “Flamingo” or “Kleine Fontaine”
