Gardening tip June 2020

Michelle’s gardening tip of the month is inspired by a property visit at Lake Cooroibah where the owner keeps track of the plants in her garden by drawing a mud map and adding the names of plants in the position they were planted. This allows her to keep track of what worked and what didn’t, while adding the month and year to the records helps to gauge growth and see which species are doing well. Happy gardening!
