Garden Notes. Saturday 26th November 2016.
Crush eggshells in the basil pots to deter snails. Find dead rat under ferns
behind water tank, its belly alive with maggots: cat Obsidian’s work. Cut 150
cm lengths of branch for Banyule green waste bundle collection this Wednesday:
four kinds of pruner, the long-arm cutter, secateurs, saw, and bare hands.
Collect jacaranda seedpods from paths for propagation: first blue flowers
appear. Snip pinot-coloured suckers from climbing roses. Transfer succulents
into sun-and-shade positions, after weeding the rainy weather weeds. Clear
gutters. Witness Eastern rosellas in the ramshackle wattle: rare sight in this
hillside garden.
