Re: Time's running out!

Rosemary is popular, but it grows and has to be trimmed back, and dahlias die off every year and have to be cut back, and the tubers lifted.

The above is an example of what I hear from people everyday. They don't want to have to do "anything" in the garden. This is a very common attitude at the moment. I suggested to one woman, who wanted a no work garden, that she would be better off with a Japanese stone garden, no plants=no work.

I hear about how the price of fruit and vege is going up, due to the floods in Queensland, but people seem to not understand, that with a little work, they could grow their own, (particularly in my town, where the majority of people have large back and front yards), then they would not have the problem of paying a high price.
