GARDENING: Diacks Nurseries 20th November

WHATS HAPPENING


Warm, wet and humid today..... 

We still have a good selection of tomato plants available.


We have larger grades potted on if you are a late starter or need some replacements.

We also have a great selection of cucumbers, courgettes & capsicums.

These are growing by the day..

If you are after something different how about trying a kumara or a watermelon.


Vege gardens should be starting to mature..

Some will have even gone to seed so now is the time to put a second crop in.

Small seeds like the carrots & parsnips can go in now.


Strawberries are starting to form so get them covered with netting before the birds find them.

Same goes for any berry crop. 


Plenty of herbs available.

The basil is even looking better now with some warmth. 


Seed potatoes are nearly all done ... We are down to just a few varieties like Agria, Nadine, and Desiree.

Make sure you get some to replace your xmas spuds when you dig them. 

Peas and beans are flowering now so make sure you stake them well.

Corn will also need some stakes and string as they grow.

Flower gardens are blooming.

Plenty of annuals around now!

All varieties and colour of petunias, geraniums & begonias ready waiting to be planted.

There is also a good crop of lavenders & peonies about to burst into flower.

Carnation plants in all colours and plenty of gypsophlia.

These two plants put together make an outstanding vase arrangement. 


BEST SHRUB at the moment would definitely have to be the rhododendron.

These are flowering beautifully now and it is a great time to buy as they show their true colours.

Tweed Street has a special on a selected few at $25.00 each.


Lawns need to be getting some work down on them.

Mowing & weed eradication is the next challenge.

Now is also a good time to sow lawns.

We sell brown top & fescue mix for the best fine lawn.

Turfix is a good control for lawn weeds or in my opinion you cannot beat a daisy weeder.

The best weeder ever!!


Now is the time to fertilise everything.

Come in and see us for help in choosing what would be best for your situation as we have so much available.

There is a WIDE range of fertilisers for all plants, shrubs, trees, berries, tomatoes etc & lawns.

WHAT YOU SHOULD BE DOING

Anything and everything that is needing done in the garden.

Try to keep the weeds down is a big must.

Hand hoe on a hot day (cultivation).

This is the best method of weed control.
