Tell us about your garden and what you're growing: Valerian, Borage, Lavender, Feverfew, Wormwood, Comfrey, Tarragon, and plenty more herbs! Turning the flower beds into edible beds at the moment. Plenty of heirloom and hybrid tomatoes, lettuce & Mesculn salad mixes etc.

At 9:38am on February 24, 2010, Yvonne Nikolaison said…: Hi Vivien these things happen. If at some stage you could still drop it into my daughters address that they be great, Door step will be fine, she will be coming down to see me soon and I am sure she can keep it alive ( she is not a gardener at all. lol)

At 9:11am on February 10, 2010, Yvonne Nikolaison said…: Hi Vivien. If you are able to drop it off to 32 Field Terrace, Riccarton, Christchurch. Anything between now and 17 February. If no one is at home just leave it on the back door. This is my daughter's flat. Otherwise maybe we can meet somewhere on 18 February as we leave for Dunedin. Thank you so much.

At 8:57pm on January 20, 2010, Yvonne Nikolaison said…: Hi Vivien I would love a comfrey plant. I am moving down to Dunedin next month and will not be able to take any of my comfrey with me. How can we get together?

Usually I balance them in a shot glass, and grow in water- they don't take that long to cast roots- a few months? I have one at the moment that is a year old and getting towards a matre tall! As far as fruiting goes I don't know what your chances are from seed- they need others around for pollination I think, and I'm pretty sure most fruiting varieties are grafted in commercial propagation. A lovely tree in their own right though!

At 11:12am on September 5, 2009, Pete Russell said…: Hi Vivien. Thanks for your expression of interest in the Ooooby Stall. Our first attempt at the idea is happening tomorrow. Let's touch base during the week to chat about how and when it might work for you.

At 9:48pm on August 22, 2009, Kowhai Thompson said…: Hi Vivien, I would love to have a tamarillo seedling! I'm doing a garden for a man who really wants one. What do you want in exchange or cash, either is fine. I have baby native seedlings - karaka, mahoe, kowhai, hebe. Where do you live?

At 4:43pm on April 30, 2009, Sarah Gallagher said…: Hey Vivien, 3 is great, honestly. I'm very grateful. Just call when you're able. I know what it's like with little ones!

At 9:39pm on April 24, 2009, Sarah Gallagher said…: Hey Vivien, I've scored a trailor this weekend so could pop out if that suits you. Give me a call on 9807658 when you get a chance and we'll sort something out. I have silverbeet and masses of sorrel, rocket and herbs I can offer as an installment! :)
