I review these products during tasks I personally carry out within my garden on a regular basis. Using the right product or tool for the job makes the difference of doing it the easy way or the hard way, so I really value a product which can make my life easier.

I am hoping that garden related companies will send me ‘products’ to test and evaluate. However I must stress that I will not be anything but fair and make no promises to these companies other than to tell the truth. Many of the products here are what I have already purchased for my own gardening use and are happy with.
You may ask, what are your qualifications? Well Judy and I opened our garden through the ‘Australia's Open Gardens’ for
10 years. We now open to support a specific charity.
We had our 18th Open Garden in 2019.
We won Gardening Australia’s 2009 ‘Golden Trowel’, have appeared on the ‘Garden Guru’s and ‘Gardening Australia’ twice and on various other television shows. We have given over 200 presentations to garden clubs on Sub tropical gardening and open our garden for bus tours. What is more important is that we have learnt from our gardening mistakes.

Great Top Dressing Soil

I have had so many problems with crook soil over the years so it is with relief that I have actually found some good stuff.
This product is a fantastic blend of goodies for top-dressing your lawn, it is sourced from 'Candy Soils' and sold at 'Rocknsoil' situated on New Cleveland Road, Capalaba.


I have just used three cubic metres on my back lawns and it is so fine that is disappears into the grass very quickly.
It is $85 a cubic metre but it's worth paying for something good.
