Father's
Day is nearly here!
What an incredible spell of settled weather!
It appears the trend is meant to continue
- fantastic for all us gardeners!
FATHER'S DAY
is upon us. We've got some
great ideas for your bloke...........
- The Weed Wand (Parasene
Weed Wand) - this has just arrived. Like
a weed sprayer but shoots flames - no harmful
chemicals, light and easy to use - great
for terraces, patios, paths and the whole
garden!!
- Osmocote Lawn Fertiliser Spreader
- a nifty hand held spreader (with ergonomically
designed handle) for Dad to obtain the perfect
lawn - plus a free bag of Lawn Builder Fertiliser!
- Europe's Finest Wolf Tools
-for lawn and garden with interconnecting
handles
- Fantastic Gloves for
hard wear
AND,
just a quick reminder about some of the things
to do at this time of year as the warmth encourages
growth - both good and not so good!
- Lawns: You can save hours
of work with a good combination food/weed
product such as Osmocote Lawn Builder with
weed kill or moss control. We've got heaps
of other lawn products as well - fertilisers
and weed control products as well as a scarifier
(to get rid of all the old thatch) you can
rent from us.
- Fertilisers: Everything
needs a feed! Come in and check out our
Burnetts Gold and Osmocote ranges. Both
release exactly what your plants need, slowly
and economically. We've got fertilisers
for roses, hydrangeas, rhodos, citrus, natives
and potted plants as well as everything
else of course!
- Pest Control: Watch
out for pests especially mealy bugs just
now. Confidor or Yates Nature's Way Pyrethrum
work well to control these. Confidor helps
control many other pests as well.
- Herbs: get a decent
sized pot or choose a sunny place in the
garden and start some coriander, French
tarragon, mint and majoram, even basil if
it is a warm spot.
- Seeds: If you love to
plant seeds and watch them germinate, we've
got a good range of the more popular flowers
and veges - sunflowers, sweetpeas, poppies,
carrots, tomatoes, beetroot etc. And of
course we've got the seed raising mix as
well.
- Snails: Watch the snails
- they are out in force just now after the
juicy shoots. We can help either with Tui
Quash, which is pretty pet friendly, or
with Blitzem.
Have fun and see you soon
Regards
Anne
