BRIGHTEN UP

that patio! With the sun emerging after a long dark winter, so too do we want to spend more time outside, lounging luxuriously in a pretty space. Often our patio becomes our central outdoor dining area and there are many possibilities when it comes to creating magic. Here are some great ideas to get you started!

Choose a gathering place Always start your patio design by choosing a space in the backyard with plenty of space for family and friends to sit and gather. This can be centred around anything from a fire pit, a shady tree, fountain or sculpture, a favourite piece of artwork; whatever your favourite part of your backyard, arrange seating to attract attention and make a

welcoming hangout spot. You will find all design flows from where you want to gather.

Heating It pays to budget for outdoor heating so that the cooler night air does not put you or your guests off entertaining outside. There is a huge range of heating appliances available now but be sure that what you pick is not overbearing in relation to the size of your patio area. It should not fill the space but instead complement it.

Lighting Be sure to use all available trees and shrubs to light your area. White Christmas lights hung as garlands along the trunk of a tree can give off a beautiful light. Be careful not to have too many colours – simple is always

more sophisticated. Be sure to check out the myriad of outdoor solar lights available as well as they can provide a cost effective way of lighting your area.

A fun game space Consider putting in a small sand pit to play croquet on or how about a paved outdoor chess board? Let your imagination roam and create an outdoor game that looks aesthetically pleasing as well as providing endless hours of fun for your guests!

Creative ice chest Every good patio has a novel ice chest. Consider finding a funky object from the second hand shop – or how about an old row boat that can be filled with ice and bevvies? There are a huge number of objects that could easily be turned into an ice chest eg. an old

suitcase, a half barrel.

Shade Just as no-one wants to sit outside when it’s cold, no-one wants to bake under a hot sun too long either. Part of your budget should encompass having a shaded area where everyone can get out of the sun. Deciding the shape of your area will dictate what type of shade you use. For a quick fix a large umbrella can often do the trick.

Music Music can add an ambience to your evening and provide you with a restful calm environment. It also serves as a great backdrop to conversation and can set the mood. These days there are many ornaments that house Bluetooth speakers that can look great in your garden settings.

Colourful CAPSICUMS

Henri Ham

AWAPUNI NURSERIES

Summer is knocking on the door (well it should be), which means it’s now the perfect time to start planting capsicums in your garden. Capsicums, known in other countries as sweet bell peppers, are surprisingly easy to grow. Their main need is for a warm sunny environment. Once you’ve ticked off that, they’re really plant-and-forget veges – requiring little maintenance. But what I really love about capsicums is the way they change their colour as they ripen – showing off their kaleidoscope of colour. They all start out green and then change colour to yellow, then orange, and lastly red. And the longer they’re on the plant, the

sweeter they will become. Another great thing about capsicums is that they cope well in confined spaces with little watering. This means they thrive well in a pot. Planting them in a pot also allows you to shift them around to maximise the sun, and also really show them off to your friends and curious neighbours. Grab your capsicum seedlings from our online shop and have them delivered direct to your door. We guarantee satisfaction, and if you’re not entirely happy with your plants, we will replace them. If you’re not already familiar with Awapuni, we strive to reduce the plastic we use. Our seedlings come wrapped in newspaper and our orders get sent out in recycled cardboard boxes. Capsicums like similar growing conditions to your tomatoes. They like a warm, sunny, sheltered and welldrained spot. Before planting, prepare your soil by digging in some compost, sheep pallets or general fertiliser. The richer the soil, the more generous your plant will be with its crop. Once you’ve prepared your ideal

capsicum planting spot, dig holes about 3cm deep, spacing them 40cm apart. Place the seedlings inside and lightly pack down with soil. I like to stake my seedlings at this point. ‘If you stake it, they will grow’ is my positive-thinking attitude to capsicum growing. Add mulch to help keep the weeds down. Newspaper covered with pea straw can also work really well. And watch out for slugs, who are also big fans of capsicums. Lay down some bait or an organic option is to check out our beer bait, which you can make at home. From here, keep them watered (more so for those in pots) and give them a feed of liquid fertiliser every fortnight to ensure a bumper crop. But try not to water the leaves of your capsicums, as this can encourage disease. In two to three months you can start harvesting your capsicums. Some cooks may say a watched pot never boils; well I say a capsicum never ripens when you check it every day. Well of course they do - but they quickly become the most inspected plant in my vege garden, while I’m waiting for them to really ripen up.
