How does your garden grow?2


3/36

IntroductionWelcome to Clarence City Councils new resource to help you plnt hedor the uture.

The seed was planted or How does your garden grow? back in 2009 when

the Clarence Community Volunteer Service (CCVS) teamed up with Councils

Positive Ageing Advisory Committee (CPAAC).

With the help o dedicated and hard working volunteer gardeners, older

clients o the service were assisted in transorming their unmanageable

gardens into more easy care, low maintenance.

Simple changes to the gardens such as mulching to reduce weeds, creating

raised beds, and choosing water wise plants, helped them to enjoy their

gardens more; eel better about remaining in their homes or ageing in place;

and have more time to pursue other activities.

Council is very supportive o the philosophy

behind this resource kit, which is lets start early

to look at how our own gardens grow beore

it becomes too late to be able to manage and

care or them as we grow older.

On behal o the Clarence Community

Volunteer Service and CPAAC, we hope that

no matter what age you are, this resource will

provide inormation that will inspire you to

think and start planning and planting ahead

how your garden grows.

It is never too erly to strt!

Message of SupportGrowing our own ood is one o the most rewarding things we can do or ourselves and our amilies butwe dont always think about what a positive eect it can also have on our community at large.

It has been very inspiring to witness the explosion o gardening projects across the state, with schools, garden

clubs, councils and sel-motivated groups coming together to create this movement towards sel suciency.

You may nd that you start a garden or a single reason, to grow seasonal ood or to save money, but then nd

that there are added benets such as improved health and spending more time with your amily. As we harvest

our ruit and vegies, we can also take a moment to appreciate that we are part o something much larger, a

global community.

Raised

garden bedso Make sure the width o your garden bed is a little less than twice

your arm reach. That means you can reach to the centre rom

either side. I you have small reach then make sure you dont

have to stretch, make the bed narrower to suit you.

o Dont make the beds too long, so that you can walk aroundthem without tiring out. 10 eet is a good length.

o Make the beds waist high so that you can garden with ease.o Make beds lower i you want to garden sitting down.o Beds can be light weight polystyrene containers, or a bench top.

Eight by 16 inch containers could supply resh vegetables all

season or one or two people.

o Bench tops will need to be sturdy as soil is heavy, especiallywhen wet.

o An old bath can make a good raised bed.o When planting in containers, use a light soil mix which will drain

easily. You can buy potting mix or containers but make sure

it has a good amount o moisture retentive material such as

vermiculite or peat moss in it, as pots dry out quickly.

o Lay out your raised beds in a north/south direction. This willensure all plants receive equal sunlight throughout the day.

With an east/west direction plants will shade one another as the

sun moves across them.

o Many nurseries and hardware stores are now selling speciallymade galvanised iron raised garden beds.

o I you dont have a back problem, then bending can be a useulexercise to keep your back supple, but i you do have a back

problem you could consider raised beds.

EasyGardeningAs we get older we MUST NOT think

we cant garden any more. The easy

garden is the way to go!

Easy gardens should be raised so they

are not dicult to maintain. Use any

containers that may t on a table. Use

an old sink or washing trough, or even

go to your local tip-shop and pick up

cheap containers. They should all have

holes in the bottom or drainage.

Go or a walk in the Botanical Gardens

and have look at their easy garden and

see how easy it is to companion plant.

You can have a little o everything;

home grown, resh and no chemicals,

and the important things, TASTE. It is all

your own, grown with love and care.

I hope you have a go and enjoy yoursel.

Please play it sae, DONT lit heavy pots

and always use a sae area. Take a cup o

tea or coee and go talk to your plants,

and watch them grow and produce!

Soil Mix

RecipeRised bed soil mi 1:

o 50% sandy loam mixed with 50% sheepmanure/mushroom compost/compost

mix + blood and bone as per packet

instructions.

Rised bed soil mi 2:

o

Equal parts o loamy soil or coarse sandand a mushroom type compost.

o Add a tight stul o dolomite lime andtwice as much powdered animals or

chook manure. Alternatively, use a stul

o blood and bone.

o A little kelp seaweed chips can also beused to supply potassium and trace

minerals.

Rised bed soil mi 3:

o Good quality potting mix be preparedor poor results rom a poor quality

potting mix. Results can be improved by

mixing a high nutrient compost.

Mintennce:

o As soil level goes down: add sheepmanure/mushroom compost/compost

mix + blood and bone as per instructions.

o I the soil becomes water repellentremove top third and add any o the

above mixes in with existing soil.

o Add soil wetter to help water penetratethe soil.

Sorc: Botcl Grds; Dvd Sth, Crk

Rod Commt Grd

HOW?

Water wisegardeningo Use a hose nozzle with a hand trigger. This

gives more control and will save water while

walking rom place to place in the garden.

o Put in new plantings in autumn ater a goodrain. This means they can get well established

beore summer. I you plant new plants in

summer they will require constant watering.

o Use glazed pots or pot plants. Terracottapots dry out much quicker than glazed pots.

o Water the roots o plants, the leaves.o Water less requently but water deeply to

encourage root growth. Frequent light

watering will encourage shallow root growth.

o Mulch, mulch, mulch. Mulch improves waterretention and can reduce evaporation by up

to 73%. It also adds nutrients to keep plantshealthy and improves soil structure.

o Consider planting Tasmania natives. Theyhave evolved to grow in Tasmania and many

have low water requirements.

o Consider Australian natives. Many have lowwater requirements.

o Lawns use a lot o water. Consider reducingyour lawn area or use drought tolerant

grasses.

o Avoid cutting grass too low. Taller grass holdswater better and protects the soil rom the

sun. Cutting grass too short encourages bare

patches and growth o moss in the lawn.

o Lawn areas can be converted to native plantstrips and mulched to educe water use.

o Visit water wise gardens to amiliarise yourselwith the beauty and appearance o native

plants.

Clarence City Council has published a FREE

booklet Plants or the Water Friendly Gardenbased on some o the plants used at the Rosny

Farm water wise garden.

o Protects the soil romerosion eects o wind and

rain

o Adds nutrients and organicmatter which improves soilertility, water retention and

structure

o Reduces weed germinationby keeping out light

o Reduces the need orwatering

Some types o Mulch

o Pine bark, woodchips,sawdust, straw or hay, lawn

clippings, leaves, sea-weed

(water to remove salt beore

applying)

To be eective mulches need to

be a minimum o 5cm thick, up to

15cm or a no-dig garden.

HOW?

Joans Tip: Propagating Rosesare you leving grden where you hve lived or

yers nd would love to tke some o your vourite

roses with you? Its esy to do!

The traditional time or taking cuttings is at pruning time

because that is when you have lots o bits to play with

but actually you can propagate at any time through

the growing season, rom early summer to winter.

The important thing is that the wood is ripe enough

and generally it is i the fower has allen o. Make the

cutting rom a strong cane that has just bloomed.

A good propagating medium is a 50-50 blend o potting

soil and perlite. This is a very light blend that encourages

the roots to grow quickly. Rooting hormone is optional

but success rate is much better with it.

Make your cutting 4 or 5 nodes long (a lea grows at

each node) trimming just above the node at the top,just below it at the bottom. Use really sharp cutters to

prevent crushing the stem and make a very clean cut.

Make a little hole with a pencil dont just push the

cutting in as that can damage the delicate outer layer.

Pat the cutting rmly into place, water it well and cover

the whole thing with a plastic bag to keep it moist and

humid.

Always take more cuttings than you need not every

one will grow. Label your rose cuttings with their proper

name i you know it. Place the cuttings in a warm place

with bright light but not in direct sunlight.

It takes 4 to 8 weeks or the cuttings to root, depending

on the weather and the rose variety. In act it may take

as little as 2 weeks or as long as 6 months or roots to

develop. Each cutting will develop dierently.

Repot the cutting when you see the roots come

through the bottom o the pot. Keep the cuttings moist

at all times, with good air circulation and sunlight.

Good luck!

Kevs Tip:

Recycle Potting SoilPotting soil can be expensive, we should not waste it. Adding

manure and compost to old potting soil will vitalise it or some time.

It is best to use pulverised sheep or shredded horse manure.

I use a mixture o about 10% manure to 90% potting soil. Well

rotted compost can also be added.

I the mixture becomes too heavy, you can add some Perlite or

some broken up Polystyrene Foam.

REMEMBER when handling manure make sure you wear gloves.

MaNURE

TypeS

Sheep best i it is pulverized

Chicken use only old, can burn plants

Horse can contain seeds etc

Cow probably the best

HOW?

o Plantings, especially trees, need to beconsidered careully

o You may not want a ast growing, potentiallytall, but short lived tree or example near the

house, where it may become a problem in

15-20 years. You may also not want it on the

roadside boundary where you may have to

organise its removal in the not too distant

uture

o Low maintenance could simply mean choosingthe plant or the proposed location and

conditions

o Knowledge o the plant, its growth habits andrequirements is essential or choosing the right

plants

o Some plants considerations are:Height, spread, liespan, dense/sparse. Preers

ull sun/dappled shade, high/low water

requirements, preerred soil type, pruning

requirements, and susceptibility to certain

diseases

o A good understanding o the site conditionswhere the plant is to go is also important.

Some site considerations are:

North/south acing, slope, amount o shade/

sunlight, drainage, soil type e.g. clay or sandy

o Plants in the right place will be happier andhealthier

o Plants in good condition are resistant to pestsand diseases

o Find a riendly nursery that can give advice onplant selection

HOW?Herbs

Herbs have been cultivated or thousands o years or both their

culinary and medicinal purposes. These ragrant and favourul

plants still play an important role in every kitchen garden. Even

a tiny plot can provide you with enough herbs to use resh,rozen, or dried.

Herbs are easy to raise, even i youve never gardened beore. I

you have the space, you can plant a ormal herb garden that is

both attractive and productive.

Formal herb gardens use design techniques that are centuries

old. Knot gardens, or example, where herbs are grown in a

knot-like design, have been popular since medieval times. I

you are short on space, however, you can tuck your avourite

herbs amid other plantings in your vegetable or fower garden.

Many low-growing herbs, such as creeping rosemary and

thyme make lovely edging plants or vegetable or fower

gardens. Herbs are ideally suited to container growing, and can

be placed in an easy to reach spot or cooking.
