Blooming and Bold


Without the buzzards and bees

Where would we bee?


A blog by Nicolle Kuna

A blog about sustainable landscaping and some eco-humour and eco-creativity.

Inside this blog we look at everything that is encroaching in to our natural urban landscapes – outdoor rooms (errchkem), weeds, urban noise, excess nutrientsThere’s a bit of art to add extra colour and inspiration. We believe in making sustainability fun - more gaming, less shaming.

Thanks Andrew for your pollination creation

Wow what a lovely picture precedes this.   Done by a man whose varied art works are literally and liberally distributed across Melbourne.   Definitely a man of many talents.  Hopefully from time to time there will be more postings of his art.

I saw a very interesting article by Carolyn Ireland, from the Globe and Mail (24/8/11), entitled The Urban Rethink - Goodbye Gardens - Hello Outdoor Rooms.  This is from a Canadian newspaper.   The Outdoor Room is taking over the world, or one would think from the title.  You can see one of my comments on that site.

We need to be posting our reactions before the entire globe gets reduced to concrete and potential rubble.
