We started
off the month with two back to back garden presentations.
The first
was ‘Caloundra Garden Club’ which is always packed with over 100 members then
the following day we went to ‘Indooroopilly Garden Club’ which was much smaller
than Caloundra with only about 35 members present, still they all enjoyed my
presentation.
The trip to
Indooroopilly took longer than to travel to Caloundra, the traffic can only be
described as awful, hate to do that drive daily.
The NBN was
put on but as we were already on cable it has not made a lot of difference.
We went to
an Orchid Show but did not buy anything as the prices were too high, still there
were some magnificent orchids on display and this one really caught our eye, I
imagine it would be very difficult to get.
Lot’s to do
in the garden as usual, I went around the whole garden trimming and cleaning.
We took
delivery of 30 bales of Sugar Cane mulch from Andrew Currant and I have
finished mulching the back yard.
I found the
best top-dressing soil and have commenced top dressing all our back lawns, I
have the proper wide rake and leveling rake but it’s still hard work.
The top-dressing
soil is available from ‘Rocknsoil’ at Capalaba at $85 a cubic metre.
I am saving the best news for last, we actually had 32 mills of rain in September, that's fantastic as September is usually dry.
