Member's Tip

Fast plant facts

Donnah, East Corrimal NSW
Mulch! It retains moisture, suppresses weeds and helps retain soil moisture. I always use newspaper underneath and in very weedy areas I use cardboard instead.

Palmetto

Palmetto Soft Leaf Buffalo is ideally suited as a lawn in many applications.
