Horticultural therapy ... my grevillea

Planting more grevilleas, now my clay (rock hard) bed seems to be a little broken up by the wormies, thanks to the laying over of pea straw.

I'm thrilled it's taken ages - but my Mallee Embers Grevillea has finally flowered.  Who says australian natives aren't as beautiful as exotics.

Pea straw is great mulch which also breaks down and nourishes the soil by bringing more worms, who nourish, and aerate soil and create drainage that so many plants need.
