Bring your wheelbarrow and a friend. Master gardeners will be on site to give advice. Other features include Plant Check and Plant Pick Up areas. Visa, Mastercard, personal cheques and cash accepted. Admission to the Garden is free this day.
Try to get there early if you want to buy some nice plants! I got a indoor plant that needs very little light. It is doing very happy now at my north facing home. (Little light) I need to get a new pot and split it to 2.
The master gardeners are very helpful and knowledgeable. I was eyeing a diff plant but that needed a lot of light. So he picked this other one for me.
I will take a picture of it this weekend and post it. It's a cactus type of plant so I only need to water it once a week.
I wanted to plant roses too but all the masters at the rose booths told me none of the roses will work at a north facing balcony. well better than buy and kill a rose.

You will be OK la. This one is so easy to care for. Just don't over water it.
btw I want to get a new pot of orchid in deeper colour. I have 3 light colour ones at home.
Seems like they are happy with my n. facing window. I did nothing except watering and occuation food (wormtea) for them. And they keep blooming.
