"Busy Bees"
Best shot I could get, I am hoping to identify them with the full screen pic on this site.Not a very good camera!
"Native Bee Hive"
"Warren - if you are interested in identifying your bees, try to get a close up photo and then compare to photos on google, or post to a native bee group on facebook and they will help you identify them. "
"Native Bee Hive"
"Tanglefoot is a sticky horticultural insect barrier. Many say it is better than grease to protect bees on star pickets. You can get it from Greenharvest and other online shops. :-) "

"Good work Warren!! Exciting news :-) I've just bought some "tanglefoot" to put on my star pickets....as it doesn't wash off in the rain. Being a bit paranoid about ants here, I put multiple rings around…"

"Native Bee Hive"
Wow, my first native bee hive in a log. A friend from church gave it to me. He noticed it on his acreage property & wanted to save it from an ant invasion. I spent hours using a paint brush to wipe off all the ants from the log until none were…

- About Me
- I am captivated by permaculture principles. Learning to work with nature instead of seeing it as a threat means I have to re-learn what my previous generation taught me. My philosophy is "as you grow so does your garden". It gives me great joy when I see increase as nature intended.

Thanks Warren. :-) I should update those pics as everything has grown SO much in 2 years. Thank you also for your comments about pigeon pea trees for native bees.......they sound great, but I don't have room for any larger shrubs or the energy to prune them so ground covers are probably best in my situation to attract more native bees. As for chronic fatigue, a few years ago I hoped that eating organically would help me recover, but I have overlapping issues and it's all much more complicated than I had hoped - so I can't recommend any particular plants to help with chronic fatigue......but hopefully we will meet up at a garden visit soon and can chat then. :-)

Ooops didn't see the other post. Just my own design, my son has an aquaponics setup as well. You are quite welcome to come and have a look if you like

Hi Warren, I'm sure we will meet up sooner or later. I have a small aquaponics setup and a few wicking pots.

I thought that might be the case. Thanks for your help.

Hi Warren
I was just thinking about you this morning as I applied Neem oil to my kale plants. They have provided me with lots of fresh kale as the cabbage moth does not like neem. The grasshopper seems to still have a go at the plant though.
How is your garden growing? Are you still enjoying it?
I have a fig tree in a pot will it thrive in the pot or does it need to go in the ground?
I am growing lots of eggplants. One plant has yellow and black eggplants growing simultaneously. I must take a picture and post it.
Bless you and your garden,
Phil
