It’s happy holiday gardening at all five Gardenway garden centres Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, 9 a.m.-5.30 p.m. We’re planting our tubs, pots and borders with Winter and Spring flowering annuals. We’re using flowering clumps of polyanthus and primroses (only 99c) for instant colour. But we enjoy a chat about your exploits and these have been real achievements this year with potatoes, cucumbers, tomatoes, pepinos. And talking . of pepinos, if you are short on ideas for using a large crop—call in for our free recipe sheet “Doing what comes naturally with pepinos”. Call, see our displays—even if it’s raining There are lemon trees with glossy green leaves and flower buds only $6.99. Grower’s surplus shrubs in tip top condition only $1.99. Admire the barrels of flowering chrysanths at Marshlands, Antirrhinums at Hornby, displays of Winter bulbs at Centaurus. And talking of displays, with Mother’s Day as close as 13th May. there’s been great activity at all Gardenway branches with gift suggestions. You’ll see export quality African Violets, Cyclamen, Poinsettias, Chrysanthemums . . . Window sill Cyclamen fCL - specially for little girls’ bedrooms Window sill Cyclamen are petite, free flowering and dainty enough in a 4in. pot to perch comfortably on a window sill. A window sill is best because the good light, which Cyclamen require, will ensure months of flowering pleasure. Strong sun will cause the plants to wilt, that’s why we suggest a bedroom with good morning light. And what could be nicer to wake up to than cheerful Cyclamen pinks and cerises. Just right for little girls and only $2.99 at Gardenway branches. The Crab Cactus is prized for its vivid flowers. Kjly V/Z.
