Winter Gardens

Tue, 26 Jul 2011 10:41:03 GMT

Not looking very green outside at the moment. Lawns are brown but it won't be long before they're soaking up the spring sunshine and turning green once again. If you're getting frost on your lawn, don't walk on it until the frost has thawed or you could damage your lawn. Enjoy your winter garden and frosty mornings (personally I'm looking forward to Spring!)

Keep those lawns happy

Wed, 04 May 2011 10:51:14 GMT

These rains are keeping the lawns growing. Soon it should be time for them to take a "growing" break. If you want a great lawn, you need to look after the soil. Make sure you keep the moisture up - if you can't get a screwdriver into the soil, you aren't watering anyhwere near enough. Dead spots on the lawn are also a red light. Use Water Crystals to retain more water in the soil. There are products you can put on the lawn or mix in with the soil if you are planting new lawn. Feeding your lawn. Use an organic fertilizer. Don't put synthetic products on your lawn - your soil is alive but it won't be for long if you don't look after it. Weed and Feed. You shouldn't need it. Keep your lawns mowed so weeds don't go to seed. Hand weed any that have got out of control (or get the kids to earn their pocket money). If your lawn has too many weeds, you'll need to look if there is another reason for it. If you need mowing for larger blocks - give Boonah Landscaping a call :)

Keep the Scenic Rim Scenic

Sat, 19 Mar 2011 02:12:33 GMT

If you live in the Scenic Rim, if you visit the Scenic Rim - you MUST visit this site. Mt Barney is a gorgeous tourist location and is now threatened with coal mining. Check out the website to see what it's all about and what you can do to try to stop it. There is a meeting this Wednesday, 23 March 2011 - if you could make it, it would be fantastic.

Are your lawns going crazy with this weather?

Mon, 14 Mar 2011 10:58:30 GMT

If you have a large yard or small acreage it can take HOURS to mow your lawn, even with a ride on mower. A zero turn lawnmower with a wide cutting width can cut this time down considerably. Get your weekends back and call Boonah Landscaping to mow that block for you.

Queensland Floods

Tue, 18 Jan 2011 12:46:04 GMT

The recent floods in Queensland have been devastating for so many families. The clean up is huge and it's amazing to see so many volunteers wanting to help. The floods are now affecting New South Wales and Victoria. The best way to help is to make a donation - www.qld.gov.au/floods/donate.html - Queensland Government Flood Appeal. Please watch out for scams and only donate to a genuine fund. Thoughts are with all of those affected

Water, water everywhere

Thu, 06 Jan 2011 23:25:39 GMT

We've seen a lot of rain in the last month or so and a flood to boot. Very fortunate that our water runs away pretty quickly unlike other Qld towns. Happy New Year everyone - I don't think we'll be buying much water this summer :)

It's the silly season!

Boonah Show

Mon, 17 May 2010 13:02:16 GMT

The greatly anticipated Booonah Show (by my 6 yr old daughter) has been and gone. A great day was had by all. Watching the fireworks with my almost 3 yr old makes you realise how damn noisy they are! Although he was hiding his face under my arm pit, he did sneak a peak every now and then and seemed to enjoy the snippets he saw! The jet truck - now that scared him big time! A show he won't forget for awhile :) Congrats to everyone who won a prize too. Now it's time to get ready for another fabulous Boonah event... The Spar Arts Festival.
