Ruud Kleinpaste: Mealybugs and Scale Insects - tricky...

Saturday Morning with Jack Tame ·

2025/12/05

One of the rottenest pests gardeners get on their plants are Pseudococcus longispinus, or any of its close relatives. Longispinus derived from the word meaning “with a long spine or tail”, so we’re talking about the Long-Tailed Mealybug. Mind you, there are other rotters that don’t look anything like these mealybugs – a variety of scale insects do the same kind of damage, which you really don’t want to see in the garden. All these insects feed by plumbing their mouthparts into the veins of the

The Landing Chardonnay 2024, Bay of Islands. RRP from $55.00 If you’re heading to the Bay of Islands this summer, then I can highly recommend a day visit to The Landing.

He established the first permanent European settlement in New Zealand, near where our vineyard now sits.   The Landing takes its name from its history as a place where early Polynesian and European immigrants to Aotearoa New

Saturday Morning with Jack Tame ·

2025/12/05

Giving edible gifts at Christmas is a winner I say! Some ideas take some forethought, like preserved lemons, fruit pastes, chutneys and sauerkraut, but there’s plenty of other ideas that you can whip up over a day or weekend right before the big day. Think shortbreads, flavoured oils, scented salts or sugar meringues, spiced nuts, dukkah, gingerbread loaf, or one of my favourites, biscotti. Jars, bottles and small wooden or cardboard boxes can all be found in second hand shops, as can ribbon, wool,

2025/12/05

The moment the syllables spilled from my mouth, I knew I’d screwed up. “And a repeat offender...” I said. “Verse a detective dog.” Verse. It was the opening few stanzas of last night’s news, the part of the show where we tease a few of the evening’s top stories. And as the opening credits played, with my microphone fader pulled down, I called out to my producer in frustration with myself. “Versus!” I said. “VERSUS.” The emails flooded in. I knew they’d be waiting for me. Polite but gently

The hottest season is nearly upon us, with Summer kicking off very soon. And with the heat on the way, it’s likely water restrictions are on the way as well. So how can you save some water this summer? Kate Hall has a few tips: Reuse greywater wisely. e.g. Collect shower warm-up water in a bucket and use it in the garden. Place a bowl in the sink when rinsing fruit/veggies (use this water for watering plants). Water plants early or late (watering in the cool hours (morning or evening) stops

Ruud Kleinpaste: Attractive colours and pollinators

Saturday Morning with Jack Tame ·

2025/11/28

Most gardeners are aware that certain plants appear to be great for pollinators. Pollination is important for the reproduction of plants, and it comes in many different ways. We often just sit and watch the spectacle unfold as we have a cup of tea in front of our shed. Pollination is done through ABIOTIC ways: (wind movements) or through BIOTIC techniques (Mostly insects: bees, flies, butterflies, moths, beetles and birds). It makes sense that early flowering plants rely on early pollinating
