I lost your e-mail, sorry, if you still want some vine cuttings, email me on col_mic@hotmail.com the vine (grape vine) looks dry with no leaves, I am still learning about gardening.... Happy to give you my phone number, but prefer to do so via email.

Again sorry for the delay....

At 7:43am on February 16, 2011, Kali said…: it was several years ago I got seeds from them, oh well I will read up about dividing and growing from stolons, wont be for a while anyhow, will wait until late autumn to dig it up and see what the roots have done this year.

At 11:14pm on January 15, 2011, Kali said…: HI Moggy, I have heard that if you put an upturned pot with scrunched up newspaper in it earwigs will go there to sleep in the daytime, and you can then dispose of them. perhaps worth a try.

At 8:30pm on December 31, 2010, Kali said…: http://ooooby.ning.com/group/southernseedexchange is the oooby group for the exchange, not very active though, the web details are at the top of the page. They send out a seedlist each spring which is always full of goodies. the email address to join is info@southernseed.org.nz they hold a few workshop events through the year and have autumn and spring seedswaps.

At 1:40pm on December 31, 2010, Kali said…: HI Moggy, I am seriously obsessed with seed saving too :)

In my opinion it is a very important task, lots of the older people that used to do it have passed away and a new generation needs to get serious about it. have you checked out the southern seed exchange in christchurch?

At 9:00pm on December 23, 2010, Megan said…: 38C is seriously hot - what month did it get to that temperature? Now I understand your bewilderment about your garlic.
