Stephanie’s Garden December 2020
Enjoy the first in a continuing blog about Stephanie’s garden at Lake Cooroibah.

A Letter to Michelle
Urban Wildlife Gardens member Wave O’Connor sent in this letter with images of the work they are doing in their garden following the visit by Michelle. Work so far included removing most of the mock orange, leaving some of it to act as a screen from the street and a bit of shade from the western sun, painting the very old lattice red in lieu of expensive laser cut , rusty metal screens (budget being important!) and planting a whole range of native species.
