Sustainability 1

Aim: 
I want to find out how to grow a sustainable garden.

Things I need to consider:
  • Can the plants grow in our climate?
  • What plants can you grow when planted in July?
  • How long do they take to mature? When can they be harvested?
  • How many mature plants will fit into my garden size?
  • How can I water them during the holidays?
  • How do I keep pests away?
Research:

Plants
Christchurch has the temperate climate.  Here is a link to a list of plants that can be grown in Christchurch during September. www.gardengrow.co.nz
