This morning our volunteer group potted over 100 cuttings and several punnet of seeds! We have potted hardy plants such as geraniums, jasmine, various varieties of succulents, coriander, parley, thyme, and oregano.
As those of you who are following the Grand Prix will know, Melbourne has had soaking rain all morning - very welcome by gardeners after sustained dry, hot weather. We started in the rain at 7:30am by getting a large collection of cuttings from my mother's garden, then went home, put a tarpaulin on the garage floor and started potting. While we worked, we moved potted plants onto the footpath to get watered by the rain.
We hope to plant them out in our street in a few weeks and organise a street party where we give some plants away to neighbours. So we need to get onto organising that!
