November News from the Nursery

Once again the weather is the main topic on the nursery. So far this month we have had some beautiful still sunny days, together with a day of torrential rain and our first frost of the winter.

We were very pleased to be able to get another poly tunnel covered on one of the warm days, not a job we can normally manage in November, but the conditions were perfect.

Now is the perfect time for planting, the soil is still warm and not too wet. Anything planted now will have time to establish nicely before growing away in the spring.

We have a lovely range of evergreens available, which would make great hedges or inividual specimens.

Many varieties of Pittosporum, Myrtus, Corokia and the ever popular Griselinia littoralis. The Griselinia makes a fabulous hedge for both inland and coastal situations.

We are busy propagating at the moment and the heated bed is rapidly filling up.
