Actual Temperature
21 degrees Celsius
Humidity : 64%
Rainfall : 0.00mm
Wind : Light Wind


The second day in Lower Botanical Garden with Lisa Burton and Curator Stephen Bishop. We continue to plant the seedlings of Geranium maverick white and Geranium maverick scarlet to finish the plot. After completing the bed we use push hoe to smooth the foot print and finally watered the bed as required to maintain soil moisture to at least depth of root growth. Watering using irrigation system.

Geranium maverick series is praised for its detailed blooms and very vigorous, bushy growing habit. Each large 5-6" flowerhead is comprised of many small blooms with two shades of colours. With its distinct leaf and large colourful blooms, these are very showy when included in beds. They are heat and drought tolerant and are extremely long bloomers and grown as annuals. 

We returned all the tools and equipments are given a proper washed and stored in accordance. We end the bedding section at 11.00am.
