00:33COSTA: Happy Valentine's to you,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined4
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedabout my relationship status,
01:09it's official -
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined11
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedyour love for the garden?
01:24Here's a look at the stories
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined15
undefined:undefined
Succulents are
:undefineda super popular group of plants.
01:39They're really diverse and,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined19
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedconditions here in central Victoria.
02:05(BICYCLE BELL RINGS)
02:18To some people, this is just soil.
02:21Sure, it's rich and fertile,
02:24but to me, it's a lot more than that.
02:26It's a time capsule -
02:28a glimpse into Melbourne's
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined29
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof here over that time.
02:59When Gardening Australia
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined34
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto Ceres Environment Park.
03:17That's peas for compost.
03:21They've got to be ploughed in
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined42
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedby Sofia Sabbagh and Emily Connors.
03:51They wanted to provide a program
03:53dedicated to cultivating farm skills,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined51
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda playgroup, preschool,
04:15kind of bush kindy,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined55
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedhands-on, child-led activities,
04:34just exploring the farm
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined59
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand different bushcraft.
04:46Oh, Lucien, excellent.
04:48So, it's really quite a broad
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined65
undefined:undefined66
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwhere it's normal
05:07for a child to know their farmer,
05:11to get a little insight in...
05:14..say, you know,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined73
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand educational.
05:27CHILD: I remember
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined78
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineddo it themselves.
05:47..the turnips and the carrots...
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined83
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat kids get a chance to learn
06:01how to notice what's around them
06:02and notice what's happening
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined89
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedresources around.
06:18And...and trust what they find
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined94
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedin touch with nature
06:32and just appreciating
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined99
undefined:undefined100
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedsomething off the plant.
06:46Um...yeah, it just brings me
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined105
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedmakes them appreciate it,
06:59and...I think it gets them to try
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined111
undefined:undefined112
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedtrying to find caterpillars,
07:20so this thing
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined117
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedall the earth together.
07:34When we're out here,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined121
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedyou're outside in nature?
07:46Um, I kind of feel like I'm...home.
07:50It's sort of like...
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined126
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat warm feeling,
08:03like if you've been away
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined130
undefined:undefined126
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedis engaging the children,
08:25and at the end of the day,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined137
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthis very high-tech hose guide.
08:42It's just an old garden fork,
08:44and you could even use one that's
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined143
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto pull that hose around a corner,
08:54the garden bed's safe.
08:55What do you do
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined149
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand plant them next year.
09:07Or what I like to do
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined153
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedmeaning more food.
09:25But beware - it will continue
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined157
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe Agapanthus praecox -
09:42that's the ordinary, home-grown
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined162
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof the agapanthus.
09:55See how the cluster of blue flowers
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined166
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedan environmental weed
10:06because it's bred to be sterile.
10:08Have a look out for them.
10:20SOPHIE: The 2000s drought
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined173
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe lawn, was all but forbidden.
10:39However, 10 years on in South
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined178
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
What we're exploring
:undefinedhere in South Australia
11:02is the idea of 'smart watering'.
11:04And what does that actually mean?
11:05We know that plants and grass
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined185
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat temperature reduction.
11:18During the last drought,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined189
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda lot from the previous drought
11:32and put in recycled water systems
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined193
undefined:undefined194
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe concept of smart watering?
11:48Well, it was funny,
11:50I was coming back from a conference
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined199
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedlooking at the recycled water use
12:03and the pipeline which runs
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined203
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat recycled water on the airport
12:14and what benefits could we get
12:16if we actually greened up
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined208
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedequipment to see if it would work
12:31and to see if we actually would get
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined212
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedon hot days.
12:47The main benefit
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined216
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto actually get off the ground.
13:00If the air is cooler and denser,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined220
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedsome experimenting around the home
13:13and just to see what temperature
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined224
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwe can see
13:27that the surface temperature of
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined228
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedtemperature difference
13:42between the healthy grass
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined232
undefined:undefined233
undefined:undefined234
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwould be the equivalent
13:57of watering your lawn for 50 years.
14:06Here you can see the surface
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined239
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda bit of water around,
14:15around this grapevine
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined243
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe surface temperature now
14:27and it's around about 23 degrees,
14:29but there's a reduction
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined248
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedup to about 20 litres of water
14:43by doing this twice
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined254
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfor your energy,
14:57and then you've got your lights
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined259
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedhere. How is it working?
15:14The misting system just puts a fine
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined264
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat you'd use in the shower
15:30for one minute.
15:32What amazed me was
15:33that these are readily available
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined270
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwhich is important.
15:46Absolutely. Yeah, really simple.
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined274
undefined:undefined275
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedtemperature for a lot longer.
16:02We put the sprinkler on about
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined279
undefined:undefined280
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfull of water in the glass,
16:17then I'll move the sprinkler
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined284
undefined:undefined285
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedactually cooling down the air,
16:29you're cooling down your lawn,
16:31and your kids are having
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined290
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthey're all dry, and fading fast.
16:59So I'm gonna prune these off
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined295
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedare really brittle
17:11and they easily fall off.
17:12Now, they can be very irritating.
17:14I find they really make
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined301
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe right gear on before pruning.
17:29First up, I'm rolling down my sleeves
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined305
undefined:undefined306
undefined:undefined307
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedright at the base - right down here.
17:49There you go. Just like this.
17:52Now, every couple of years,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined313
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedyou can see, they've done very well -
18:06lots of flowering
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined317
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedremoving these flowers.
18:23Once I've removed all this material,
18:25it'll be chopped up
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined322
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedextreme heat and heavy frosts,
18:50it also reflects a history that
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined328
undefined:undefined329
undefined:undefined330
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat live there
19:12and they're about the place
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined334
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe garden is a real process.
19:28It's almost like meditation.
19:30It's feeling part of the landscape,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined339
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwith a garden like this?
19:43Well, this is the garden we weren't
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined126
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwe wouldn't have a garden,
19:52'cause we had a herb farm before.
19:54So, what was here before?
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined348
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfor passive solar.
20:05That was the main requirement.
20:07And then we weren't gonna have
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined353
undefined:undefined354
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwithin the garden.
20:20They seem to be really well related.
20:22We had built
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined359
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwe've got the garden in the house
20:34and...that sort of thing.
20:36And it's the same rock as outside?
20:38That's the bottom of the rock
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined366
undefined:undefined367
undefined:undefined368
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedEnglish people, the early settlers
20:59kind of had that nostalgia.
21:00So, partly because of fire danger,
21:02we have a lot of deciduous trees
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined375
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfor a drink.
21:19A bit of water is really important
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined380
undefined:undefined381
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthrough the garden?
21:33Yeah, they were crashing
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined386
undefined:undefined387
undefined:undefined388
undefined:undefined389
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined(LAUGHS)
21:51Elise has also studied
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined394
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedpart of the history.
22:04When you ground yourself
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined399
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto merge the garden into...
22:22..appropriately into the landscape -
22:24so, not feeling separate from
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined407
undefined:undefined408
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedhere and there, I can find
22:44this is probably where Charlie Lipp
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined413
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwith tough, beautiful plantings
23:07and punctuated by some creative
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined418
undefined:undefined419
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedIt's a scaevola.
23:31It's so easy to propagate -
23:32taking little bits
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined426
undefined:undefined427
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe shade of the tree,
23:53you really understand nature.
23:55In other words, we've got
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined433
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedabout Elise's garden,
24:19you can read all about it
24:21in the latest issue of

undefined:undefined439
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof salt-loving plants
24:35along our coastlines.
24:41TINO: Australia's coastline
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined445
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedspecialised, hardworking plants -
25:01the saltmarshes,
25:02and they've caught the attention
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined452
undefined:undefined453
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedjust north of Hobart, to explore.
25:22And all through here is sea rush,
25:24and now we're getting into
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined460
undefined:undefined461
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthree-dimensional structures
25:42and just multiplies the life
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined467
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedby looking at the plants,
25:57but when I started looking
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined472
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof plant species here.
26:10So, we get a lot of succulents -
26:12succulents that are ground covers,
26:14succulents that get a shrubby form,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined478
undefined:undefined479
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthere's a chance
26:35that there's a beautiful wetland
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined486
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe lungs of the...
26:57..you know, of a marine system,
26:58because they're feeding
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined491
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfor a lot of breeding fish
27:10and a lot of small crustaceans
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined495
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedsuch special environments
27:21and they support
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined499
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedquite challenging environment.
27:33Because salt, as any farmer
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined503
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto sort of look at them
27:42and understand what that might be.
27:51So, we'll have a look over here.
27:53This is the sea parsley,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined510
undefined:undefined511
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedYeah. Yep.
28:12Most definitely.
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined518
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedbluey-greeny sort of look about it,
28:24and then every now and there,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined523
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthey photosynthesise?
28:35Well, effectively, yeah.
28:37I mean, that's all they are,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined529
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedbeing a little bit overloaded
28:49or a little bit stressed.
28:51When it gets too salty, the ground
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined534
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda lot of these succulents.
29:02This is an interesting area
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined539
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedis we've got...
29:12Ow! I'll just watch
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined543
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfrom their gardens.
29:22Yes. That's right.
29:23There's a whole lot of them,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined548
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwe've got the shiny swamp-mat,
29:32and that's that sort of thick,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined552
undefined:undefined553
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedhas formed an alliance
29:49with Vishnu
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined557
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand he's also very knowledgeable.
30:02So, one of the projects
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined561
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedor monitor any change.
30:16GIRL: What's this?
30:17Oh, well spotted, Tina.
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined566
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedour global garden.
30:30Look good?
30:32Can anyone see any other species
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined573
undefined:undefined
Still to come
:undefinedon Gardening Australia...
30:51..Jane shows how much fun
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined578
undefined:undefined579
undefined:undefined580
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof shapes and sizes,
31:25in almost every colour,
31:27and they're a cinch to propagate?
31:29You don't know?
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined587
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthey're really, really tough.
31:47In this part of the garden,
31:49I've got several varieties that are
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined592
undefined:undefined19
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedbird-attracting flowers.
32:04Each of these clumps started
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined597
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedusing a serrated knife,
32:16making room for new pups to grow
32:18and it enables access
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined602
undefined:undefined603
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI'm pulling out old, daggy leaves
32:35to freshen up the pup
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined608
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand promote fresh, attractive growth.
32:52And some of these prunings
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined614
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedas well,
33:10to expose a decent bit of woody stem,
33:12and that's what I'll stick into new
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined621
undefined:undefined622
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand also sharp sand.
33:38And that's important,
33:40because succulents typically need
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined629
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwhere it's quite warm and dry,
33:51you don't need to set them aside
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined634
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof popping them in,
34:02and I'm putting three here
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined638
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedaround the base of the plants.
34:27Now, these won't even sit back.
34:30They'll start to root
34:32and then keep growing,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined648
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedalready plenty of roots off it.
34:52That's where the new shoots
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined652
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedin this old galvanised bucket,
35:03which has holes in it for drainage,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined657
undefined:undefined658
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedis nice also.
35:21Have a look at that.
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined664
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto stabilise it.
35:42So, just a final rearrange.
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined668
undefined:undefined669
undefined:undefined670
undefined:undefined671
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedis a bit of straight stem
36:03with two or three nodes on it.
36:05A decent-sized dibber.
36:08Bore a hole in the potting mix.
36:10And stick that in.
36:12In fact, what I might do
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined680
undefined:undefined681
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthese will be plants to give away.
36:35After a gentle watering in, these
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined687
undefined:undefined688
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfor little to no cost.
37:00I'm making a terrarium,
37:02and lots of people love doing this,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined693
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand get a cheap thing like this one.
37:17It's perfect to make a terrarium.
37:19And really, it's so easy.
37:21All you need is some charcoal,
37:23a little bit of potting mix
37:25and some mulch.
37:27And then the plants. Now, again, you
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined703
undefined:undefined704
undefined:undefined705
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedsome charcoal in the container,
37:44and that's about
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined711
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat charcoal does the trick.
37:56Next, the potting mix,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined715
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda filmy little looking one.
38:11Both are low-growing.
38:14And then a Spathiphyllum -
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined722
undefined:undefined723
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda little bit big in the container.
38:27Don't think about planting
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined729
undefined:undefined730
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedjust to settle the plants in.
38:53As the plants grow,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined734
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedit's easy to kill these plants.
39:07They'll sit in water
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined740
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto bring the outdoors indoors.
39:32I reckon it's safe to say
39:34that plenty of you
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined747
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedbut sustainability too.
40:08WOMAN: The best part about
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined753
undefined:undefined754
undefined:undefined755
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedAlright. So, I've got five protea...
40:49My name is Rita Feldmann
40:51and I'm a florist with a particular
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined761
undefined:undefined762
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand what grows here.
41:20The Dandenong Ranges
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined768
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedin a room
41:38by bringing in
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined773
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedin other people's gardens
41:55to see what's happening and how
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined780
undefined:undefined781
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwith a horse and cart,
42:24and that became quite a well-known
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined787
undefined:undefined788
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat I've selected,
42:41and they all sort of work
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined792
undefined:undefined793
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedYou can't really go wrong.
42:57The most critical thing
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined797
undefined:undefined798
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined'cause it just doesn't look right.
43:15It has to be in a position...
43:17Like, maples, when you look at them,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined803
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthey're beautiful. They're abs...
43:31When they're at their best,
43:33they are absolutely the most
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined808
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof the materials that you're using.
43:52Not only does that include
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined813
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwhere they're coming from.
44:06Are they locally grown or, um...
44:08And trying to avoid flowers
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined818
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat in this, um...
44:27..industry/art form
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined823
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineddepending on where it lands,
44:45it can last for hundreds
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined828
undefined:undefined829
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedor down the drain,
45:06and that's adding to
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined834
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwhere you don't need any...
45:20Suit the vase to suit the flowers.
45:24There's chicken wire - creating a
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined840
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthey sort of...
45:39..basically, the stems poke into them
45:41and it gives some structure
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined845
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedinside your vessel,
45:56or you can use it as a base for
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined850
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthey were throwing all the bottles
46:13into the landfill,
46:14and so I asked somebody
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined856
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat I would try and use
46:29as many reclaimed materials
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined860
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwell, the 10% of my working life
46:49where you're actually standing around
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined866
undefined:undefined867
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedeverything living does.
47:14And this little birdbath has actually
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined872
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedan even, humid temperature -
47:27somewhere between
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined876
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfor them to land on,
47:40and it doesn't matter
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined881
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthe bees come and go,
47:51which direction they're going.
47:53It's also been
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined886
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedAll the talk's about coffee.
48:14"Do you want to meet for a coffee?"
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined890
undefined:undefined891
undefined:undefined892
undefined:undefined893
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedrefreshing or invigorating.
48:34I make many of the teas
48:35from the leaves and the flowers
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined899
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto beat the heat and the humidity.
49:02Making turmeric tea is really easy.
49:05I've given it a good scrub.
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined905
undefined:undefined906
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfavourite plants for brewing a cuppa.
49:41The next comes from the leaves
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined913
undefined:undefined914
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto stop it from running away,
50:01it likes plenty of sunshine
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined918
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfire and frost.
50:16And it grows so quickly from seed,
undefined:undefined00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,800
undefined:undefined922
undefined:undefined
