12-Aug-10 from Will I am wanting to use a 5 Lt sprayer which has had roundup in it for spraying copper on fruit trees. What is there about or in the houses cupboards that will help neutralize the Roundup. Its been rinsed a few times and its probably ok because all the branches are brown bark rather than green but it would be good to know for later in the year. Thanks heaps Keep warm. :-) Will

31-Jul-10 from Babymama It is time to prune my standard iceburg roses. I made a start and did some of them, but I saw a show (Good Morning) that showed I should have been a lot harder with the pruning. What I have done is more like a heavy dead-heading, than a good hard prune. That was about 3 weeks ago. So my question is should I re-do them? Or do I leave them as is this year and give them a good going over next year? Love to hear your advice!

27-Jun-10 from Tessa We have a problem with growing lawn in 2 places, first being underneath a big pohutukawa due to the shade and the next underneath a big palm where it seems the rain runs of the big leaves onto the lawn where no grass then grows. If anyone has any suggestions on what tyoe of grass to plant or how we could fix the problem that would be wonderful.

30-Apr-10 from Terri Johnston I have a couple doozen plants growing in peat pots at the moment. They have worked great for me in the past, though this time not so. When I went to lift up one the other day a whole lot of tiny white bugs started jumping around. They are not white fly, they are not spider mite, mealy bug... They are eating aways at the bottom of the pots and making quite a mess. I am also worried that they mite be damaging the roots. Any ideas on what they are and/or how to get rid of them would be great!!

25-Apr-10 from Graham I am wishing to establish a 'tropical' garden in a property recently purchased on Auckland's North Shore which is typically solid clay. At the moment the area is planted in just agapanthus. Any ideas of what I can plant to give a tropical look? Flowers are not important. |

11-Apr-10 from Antoinette Hi There, we have a large plum tree that really needs to be pruned back this year. I was wondering if anyone could tell me when the best time to do this is and how hard we can prun it for it to still produce next season. Thanks.

22-Mar-10 from Telf Hi everyone, we have a large (about 8-10m tall) Phoenix palm in our front garden that we want to remove. There are a lot of similar trees on TradeMe, but they don't seem to attract much interest. Do these trees really have much resale value?

19-Mar-10 from Kris I am looking for a garden designer/landscape architect in Auckland who is not obsessed with sub-tropical and minimalist gardens! Every website I have looked at has portfolios of these types of gardens but none including actual old fashioned flowers(like Chris Beardshaw's gardens for example). Can anyone recommend a designer who is not so influenced by fashion? |
