It was a great morning, Gail and was there too which was a lovely surprise, always nice to have a friendly BLF member to share with. I learnt many new tips and of some new plants to source to add depth and complexity to a simple vietmese soup. The morning tea was very good. Then to cap it off we were all given a voucher to choose five free plants from the Nursery.
And...there is more.... A voucher for up to two free tickets to a South Pine river walk and Bush Tucker morning tea.
I dropped into the nursery and it was just too difficult to choose 5 plants so I came home with 11.
All have been on my when I see that I will buy it list so I was very happy I went.
Can heartily recommend.
