  1. making me drool there Colhawk!

    I came in again to find 2 doves pecking at my buttons! Grrrrr! some big peck marks in there too and a whole bunch more seedlings destroyed. 2 dogs live in my garage too sleeping through the whole thing! is there anything I should do in regards to the pecks on the buttons or should I just leave them to heal on their own?

    Lok Im with you, even if they were white doves pecking away the rage would still be there :BANGHEAD2:


  2. planted some leaf cuttings and some brug seeds (thanks d00d!) re-arranged my grow light enclosure to fit a few more trays in. Spent 4 hours jackhammering an old fish pond out ready for its new role as a cactus patch :) bagged 15 bags of mulch from my recently removed peppermint gum and still haven't even scratched the surface...

  3. I have them growing in my normal backyard soil. They did grow quite big once transplanted but seemed to die off after about 3 months but are now starting to throw new shoots so I am hoping they are a bit more hardy this time around. I also threw a whole bunch of seeds into some soil as a rat had got into the bag and eaten half and now 2 weeks later I have at least 50 seedlings with me doing nothing. We have had some rain in that time though


  4. Finally got to get some pics together, last few weekends have been putting up brushwood over my fence and start planting! Grabbed a whole heap of timber from work and made some make shift edging. The backyard is still a big work in progress but at least now I can see it coming together. Some of these guys came via the Sydney plant swap, wanted to show their new home

  5. Im sad to admit but my missus made me buy a packet of these! i planted a few but nothing happened, I would have been happy with any rose that pops up saves me having to buy them. If anyone wants any i still have a few left, might be interesting to see what they actually are.
