The water stays where you want it to and therefore the time spent watering and continually building earth mounds has been cut almost in half. Before using your GreenWells, trees planted in our reserves could not be seen and never had a chance of survival, but this year they have all survived. The fact that they can be used more than once and because of the cost factor, I am sure that the Port Pirie City and Districts Council can be convinced to use them in future plantings. City of Port Pirie. It is so breathtakingly simple - both in concept and application.
Nothing is more important than watering plants well.
Plants people do like pushing the boundaries so far as trying to use unsuitable soils. That's OK - but from my view the real problem is then to keep control of water to a limited soil area, while the plant struggles to adapt to its new and often hostile environment. Being able to retain mulch is for me, an added bonus appreciated by any grower living in a changing climate. In speaking on garden sessions on the radio, I am often aware of the difficulties the uninitiated strike in adding new plants in competitive environments. Well done GreenWell.
