All's alive and well!

The seedlings are still alive (I check them every morning)! Cutworms, frost and birds have not taken any yet (me thinks those wormies are freezing their willies off!). I know that companion plants really help (for pests & disease) and will try to get some soonest... On the way into town this morning I noticed that a band of municipal workers all smartly dressed in bright new overalls brandishing noisy petrol chainsaws were cutting down young Black Wattles on the side of the dirt road - now that's what I call provision!!! We'll load them if they're still lying there untouched in two days time...
