I asked a question on my social media over the weekend which stems from my travels and temperature changes of late. My question was, ‘Do you have a cold shower at the end of your usual wash down?’ I’ve been an advocate of this approach for quite some decades and regardless of the season, I will always finish by turning the hot water down and amping up the cold. 

Costa visits a Landcare legacy school, Millie tours a designer home haven, Jane finds wonders in a wellness garden, we meet a tenacious topiarist, Sophie gets active on autumn jobs, Hannah shares a space-saving propagation tip and Clarence builds a mini native wetland.

Clarence dives into the world of niche native water plants and shows us how to build a mini wetland.

Hannah demonstrates how to maximise a small space propagation station using left-over plastic pots.

The beautiful aquatic Sacred Lotus flower looks great in a garden pond or water feature.
