Open Garden fast approaching So much work has been done since my last blog and since the last Open Garden we had last December. We have just had a little rain and the gardens here at Itchy Palms are bounding along nicely. Hoping to see you here. Helping raise funds for the local Mandurang Hall.

Our Christmas present from above. December 2017
As you can see this poor Manchurian Pear in our De Beer's Garden has been in the wars before and was just starting to heal nicely. She broke in half 4 days after our Open Garden (thankfully) when a storm came past with strong winds. Paul has done some surgery with his chainsaw since and we are giving this tree one more chance. It's amazing how one tree can totally change the appearance of a garden. The plants around it have gone from full shade to full sun so hopefully they are tough enough to survive our brutal summer. Pictures of surgery and progress to follow. Merry Christmas & Happy Digging. Yes our first open day is this weekend (16th & 17th December 2016 10am till 4pm each day) to help raise funds for the local Mandurang Hall restoration project. Just a few finishing touches to be done and hopefully the weather will be our friend. We are so happy with our progress and so exhausted but hope to see your here. There will be drinks available and some plants on sale. We have a porter loo on site and there are disabled toilets at the Mandurang Cricket club on the corner of Nankervis and Sedgwick roads. Special thanks to Bendigrow Garden and Living Centre, and Tannery Lane Sand and Soil, Tannery Lane, Strathfieldsaye Victoria. Remember be sun smart and sorry no dogs. Here are some fresh brag pictures of the gardens to inspire you. Happy Digging. Itchypalms Gardens address is 26 Kenean Court Mandurang south, Victoria :)
