The life and times of our Lomandras
Planting local native species in our gardens doesn’t mean we can forget about their maintenance.
Noosa’s Native Plants
“Wet, green and weedy” could describe our gardens in March. Add “chewed” for all the ragged leaves left by the hungry caterpillars. Moss and new growth cheer us up as we sharpen the secateurs for some trimming when the rain stops.
February Colour
February has given us lots of rain, greenery and growth. The colourful new foliage and every possible shade of green has contrasted with the fungi and been appreciated by caterpillars. In a small urban garden the challenge is to display contrasting foliage and make the best use of splashes of colour. I hope you enjoy your garden as you also tackle the abundance of weeds such as Singapore Daisy and the introduced pasture legumes that try to out-compete our local native plants.
