The Secretive Sharks of Walker Bay Often when scientists use the term‘shark’ , what they really refer to are chondrichthyans, the group of animals which include sharks, skates, rays and chimaeras. The South African Shark Conservancy (SASC) is currently conducting a chondrichthyan diversity, abundance and seasonal habitat use project in Walker Bay, the first project of its kind in the area. The chondrichthyan project involves fishing at five different sites which correspond to five different habitats (rocky, sandy, kelp, harbour and estuarine) to see if different species prefer different habitats, and also to get an idea as to the population size of the different species. Once the animals are caught, they are measured, tagged and released. The tags we use are called spaghetti tags and each one has a unique number on it and an address which can be used by anyone who catches the shark to submit information regarding the animal’s size, weight and where and when it was caught. If the animal is caught again, we can see how much it has grown during the time since we last caught it and see if it has moved between habitats if we catch it in a different location. The information SASC collects is extremely important as the number and diversity of chondrichthyans in Walker Bay can give an indication as to the health of this ecosystem. At present there is a lack of information regarding the species of chondrichthyans occurring in Walker Bay, and their population sizes are unknown.

HOW CAN YOU HELP? If anyone catches a chondrichthyan with a spaghetti tag in it—please note what species it is, measure the total length of the animal, record its weight if possible, record the tag number and the date and location of when and where it was caught and submit this information to info@sharkconservancy.org. And remember, unless you are going to eat what you catch, always catch and release to ensure the health of our beautiful bay! EXCITING NEWS!!! On the 6 December Dr. Sylvia Earl (National Geographic Explorer in Residence) will be launching the Cape Whale Coast Hope Spot, an initiative for people to come together as custodians for the marine environment. For more info visit http://www.sst.org.za/what-we-do/hope-spots. On the 6th December Dr. Earl will unveil an underwater plaque near the Old Harbour; it will be a day not to be missed!

November is die maand van Prostaatkanker - So kom manne, groei daai snorre en skenk vir ʼn goeie doel. Ons verwelkom November en dit lyk of ons maar die somer klere heeltemal kan uitpak. Dit was ʼn heerlike koue en nat winter waarvoor ons ook baie dankbaar is. Ons dam is vol en ons tuine is mooi groen. Read on page 6 for more information on the Lighthouse Ladies' Charity Walk. It started in 2006 with 10 women walking from Cape Agulhas to Danger Point to raise money for charity. And now, almost ten years later, these ladies are still inspiring us. On page 3 SASC tells us more about the sharks in Walker Bay. For our female readers, see page 10 for Refine's tips on how to look beautiful this coming season, and home interior tips on page 22. Finally, good luck to all the Matrics in the Overberg. Study hard, we are all thinking of you. Geniet die laaste bietjie “stilte voor die Desember storm” en sterkte met al die Kersinkopies.

Lighthouse 2 Lighthouse Walk 2015: going from strength to strength

'n Uitdaging aan almal wat taal gebruik Ons is almal baie dankbaar dat daar iets soos leksikograwe is wat wêreldwyd elke dag besig is om tale op te skryf. Dit vereis harde, harde werk en kundigheid in afsondering, alleen op jou stoel voor jou rekenaar. En geen taal kan daarsonder groei nie. Viva alle leksikograwe viva! Nou die uitdaging: probeer om elke dag een woord te gebruik wat besig is om in onbruik te verval*. Maak in jou gesin daarvan 'n speletjie. Elkeen kry 'n beurt om 'n woord te kies wat almal in die gesin tien keer daardie dag reg moet gebruik. Daar kan selfs 'n prys uitgeloof word, soos dat jy 'n halfuur later mag bed toe gaan, of dat Pa nog 'n skeppie roomys mag kry. 'n Handige voorbeeld is die woord ononderhandelbaar. 'n Tiener en selfs 'n vierjarige , my kind" is! Hierdie speletjie ter ere van leksikograwe hoef nie tot jou moedertaal beperk te word nie handig, né? En dit kos niks. Geniet die speletjie terwyl jy terselfdertyd aan jou en jou kroos se woordeskat bou. As julle ons wil kontak, let tog op ons nuwe e-posadresse: amandad@vva.atkv.org.za of chareldinev@vva.atkv.org.za. ons telefoonnommer is nou 021 880 1761 op Stellenbosch. Wederom!

Borg 'n Woord 16 Oktober is Woordeboekdag en dit is ook die dag waarop die Woordeboek van die Afrikaanse Taal jaarliks sy projek Borg 'n Woord loods. Noah Webster is op 16 Oktober gebore en Woordeboekdag word internasionaal ter ere van hierdie beroemde Amerikaanse woordeboekmaker gevier. Noah was 'n briljante leerder wat op 15-jarige ouderdom aan die Yale Universiteit begin studeer het. Later word hy die samesteller van die eerste Amerikaanse woordeboek en hy word dus beskou as die vader van maak van die belangrikheid en onmisbaarheid van woordeboeke as inligtingsbronne. Dr. Willem Botha, uitvoerende direkteur van die WAT, se boodskap op Woordeboekdag is: "Bemagtig jouself, jou man, jou vrou, jou kinders of jou geliefde met 'n nuwe woordeboek. Dit is een van die beste beleggings wat enigiemand kan maak". Volgens hom koop baie mense een of miskien twee keer in hulle lewe 'n nuwe woordeboek. Daardie woordeboek is dan net 'n frustrasie omdat die verlangde inligting meestal nie daarin is nie. Daar is benewens gedrukte woordeboeke ook opwindende elektroniese woordeboeke beskikbaar - selfs op jou selfoon. Sommige woordeboeke op die internet is gratis, terwyl ander jaarliks op ingeteken moet word. Borg 'n Woord het een van die WAT se lewenslyne geword in sy oorlewingstryd weens die drastiese inkorting van die staatsubsidie. Die WAT moet tans jaarliks R3,5 miljoen self genereer om sy begroting van R5 miljoen te laat klop. Borg 'n Woord is een van verskeie fondswerwingsinisiatiewe van die WAT. Dave Pepler is vanjaar die beskermheer van Borg 'n Woord en hy doen die volgende beroep op alle Afrikaanssprekendes: “Hoekom is Afrikaans vir my kosbaar? Sonder borg 'n woord, borg ruim!” Deelnemers kan enige Afrikaanse woord borg vir R100 en het. Borgskappe van R5 000 per woord is eksklusief en niemand anders mag daardie woorde borg nie. Net meer as 150 woorde is reeds eksklusief geborg. Teen R100 kan meer as een .Volledige inligting oor Borg 'n Woord is te kry by www.wat.co.za, of bel 021 8873113 of skryf aan wat@ sun.ac.za .

his will be their 10 year celebration! In 9 years they have raised more than R1,3 million and hiked over 1,000 km along one of South Africa’s most rugged, desolate and incredibly beautiful coastlines. Lighthouse 2 Lighthouse (L2L) is a group of Overstrand women who walk 100 km from Cape Agulhas to Danger Point, near Gansbaai, over four days raising money for various charities from corporate and private sponsors. This year they will be expanding their numbers to 80 walkers. group’s fundraising initiatives have grown exponentially since then and last year R 285 285.00 was handed to the Hermanus Waldorf School to buy a bus. L2L committee member Lindi Prinsloo, says the Hermanus Night Shelter was chosen to be the “We badly need a Shelter in Hermanus for the homeless. They are currently using a garage with 12 bunk beds and basic facilities for washing and toileting. The Lighthouse Ladies hope to raise enough funds to help build a shelter” says Prinsloo. practice walks, involving the community and anyone interested in walking and donating R100.00

KidsCan Programme, which received R31 050.00. Some of the original L2L veterans from 2006, the “Earth Mothers”, are still part of the group today, which consists of ladies from the age of 20 to 70+. camped in the open en route. Now with centralised camping at Die Dam, the hikers need only carry a small pack for their daily needs. We are encouraging Hermanus businesses to help us meet our target of R300 000.00 for this worthy cause. Anyone who donates a minimum of R300.00 can claim a tax exemption. People do the Lighthouse 2 Lighthouse Walk for different reasons. Some want a weekend away from their daily activities, while others have a spiritual reason or want to give something back to the community. Some have lost loved ones or recently moved to the area and want to meet people, enjoy the camaraderie, the sense of purpose and the deserted and extremely beautiful coastline. Prinsloo agrees: “It is a big challenge, but you become part of one big family, which motivates you to the end.” If you are interested in donating to the L2L 2015 cause.

The Green House is proof of sustainable alternative energy sources

We can do without ESKOM Clean affordable energy options within everyone's reach

“We have proved that it is possible to operate off the grid quite efficiently,” says Dr Anina Lee, Communications Manager of Whale Coast Conservation. The Green House on the road between Hawston and Onrus is proof of this fact, using only alternative energy sources such as photovoltaic panels, wind turbines and rainwater tanks. Visitors to the Exploring Energy Expo at the Fernkloof Nature Reserve from 25 to 28 September were delighted with the miniature model of a Green House, as well as all the innovative equipment to save energy, and the new Cool Cat Project for children - where Stripes the Eco Cat educates children on environmental issues. Continuing the theme of the Fernkloof Flower Festival which paid tribute to botanical explorers who found and named the thousands of Fynbos species indigenous to our area, Whale Coast Conservation highlighted energy and technology explorers. Steam and wave energy also had their share of the limelight. A model of the wave energy converter attracted lots of attention. The Mean Sea Level Wave Energy Converter is presently under construction at Abagold to generate sustainable energy for the abalone farm from the waves in Walker Bay. Dr Lee and her assistant Denfred Bruintjies used the miniature Green House to explain energy-saving methods to onlookers. These include: ◗ Solar water heater on the roof to generate hot water without electricity. ◗ Insulate your geyser with a shiny

blanket to maintain the heat longer. Water pipes can also be insulated. Floors can by insulated by thick carpets to keep the house warm. ◗ Grey water can be used instead of expensive purified water. Use your bath, sink and washing machine water for the lawn, garden and trees. Grassfriendly detergents are inexpensive. ◗ Passive solar energy can be generated in winter by using winter sun to warm up the place. Dark roof tiles will ensure the winter sun will be stored longer for the cold evenings. During summer an awning on north and west side windows will provide free air conditioning. ◗ A slow burning sealed fireplace and tall chimney will distribute the heat evenly through your house in winter. ◗ Use enough duvets and blankets in the bedrooms instead of heaters. ◗ LED lights will save electricity costs and come in white and yellow hues nowadays. ◗ An induction stove will use 50% less electricity and cooks faster than an electric stove. ◗ A vegetable and herb garden will provide much satisfaction and attract birds and bees. ◗ Build your own beehive and let your bees pollinate your garden and provide honey. ◗ Create a composting heap with your veggie scraps and a hand full of bokashi to generate your own fresh compost. ◗ A self-cleaning swimming pool can be created by plants in the pool, saving chlorine and Kreepy Krawly costs. ◗ A small bat house will keep mosquitoes under control, since one bat can eat 2000 mosquitoes a night.

By Alta Pretorius

Whale Coast Conservation offered advice to homeowners on the technologies needed to become more self-sufficient energy-wise, whether it be to keep certain functions going during load shedding, or completely independent of Eskom power. For more information, go to www. whalecoastconservation.org.za

S I L LY S E A S O N A H E A D … HELP…QUICK FIXES! If you ever wondered whether you had a good or a bad year, have your photograph taken! No matter what you do, the tell-tale signs of stress and normal ageing seem to be magnified when somebody decides it’s time for a picture! Bad news is, this is the “silly season”…lots of parties, year-end functions to attend, lots of drinks and lots of photographs, so you might just as well get ready for them!

PERMANENT HAIR REMOVAL Unwanted hair can make you feel unattractive and self-conscious about your appearance. Why not feel more confident by removing it? With our state-of-the art laser hair removal system, you can rid yourself of unwanted hair. Typical areas treated are legs, bikini line, face, neck, back, arms, chest, etc. All skin types and colour can be treated. Get yourself hair free and beach ready.

Blue = Cyan 51 & Yellow 2

THE “HOLIDAY” GLOW

I

t’s the wonderful silly season and we party the night away just to regret at leisure the next day, and then go and do it all over again. At the same time we are complaining about how tired we are and how desperately we need our holiday. I haven’t been able to work out the logic, except that we are all masochists who enjoy the good life. So whether you are of the working crowd or the leisure crowd during this holiday season, go big and enjoy all of it. Come to Refine Clinic for a bit of help that will last a long time and best of all it’s not going to be painful or take a lot of time. I’m talking about a Nefertiti neck lift and the Liquid Facelift to relax those muscles that cause your frown and the fillers to help Mother Nature a bit where the laugh lines have become a bit more permanent than necessary. There’s a lunch time peel to make you glow for that year-end pic, a permanent solution for smudge proof make-up, while dancing the night away. A quick-fix laser solution to tired, dull and sun damaged skin. We can even throw in a permanent hair removal session, if getting into a swimsuit is a dreaded thought… But whatever the thoughts, summer has hit us and we are getting ready to say good bye to 2014!

BROW LIFT WITH BOTOX

A sagging jaw line is the fastest way of giving away one’s age, and the new Nefertiti neck lift is a procedure where small amounts of Botox are injected along the lower jaw line and the side of the neck into the superficial muscle groups called platysma which pull the jawline area down. By relaxing these muscles with botox, a lift is achieved in the neck and jawline area and the jowling effect is reduced. The effect usually lasts 4 to 6 months and the treatment only takes a few minutes to do. A truly walk in, walk out procedure.

As we age, there is the downward pull of gravity and loss of collagen in the skin that causes lines and frowns to appear where they are not wanted! This is where Botox is strategically injected around the brow area to relax the muscles and bring back the arch in your eyebrows; to create a more youthful and refreshed look. It lasts for about four months and with repeated use the time between treatments is likely to become longer. Or you can try Carboxy therapy that will improve the collagen in the skin, or even have a Tripollar treatment which is a skin tightening device that heats the deep dermal collagen and the result is a lift in the brow area.

REFINE’S SIGNATURE “QUICK FIX OVERHAUL”

BEAUTY SOS

A combination of state of the art technology, using a light lunch time peel, together with laser, radiofrequency and CO2 modalities for a tighter, firmer and glowing skin that will last and get you ready for all your socializing this season! Ask one of Refine’s experienced therapists for the right combo package for your budget, time and expectations.

For beautifully looked after feet in sandals for summer, have a gelish pedicure. Fix those nails with a deluxe manicure. Spoil yourself with a pampering, year end DMK Enzyme Facial. Or have a massage to get rid of the stresses and strains. ALL UNDER ONE ROOF HERE AT Refine…

NEFERTITI NECK LIFT WITH BOTOX

Therapist tip of the month: Rolanda Jansen: “My favourite quick fix for home use is definitely the Nimue Glycolic Mask- real Glycolic Goodness! This active mask can be applied for instant radiance or when exfoliation is needed. Almost like having a quick peel in your holiday bag! Apply before a big event, to have a beauty flash, Cinderella Complexion. Available at Refine!”

Dr.'s tip of the month: "Don't let your hands give away your age! Filler plumps and hydrates hands and a TCA peel improves skin colour tone and texture. Treatments readily available at Refine!"

PERMANENT MAKEUP Permanent Makeup is the ultimate solution to always look your best, especially in the warmer weather where makeup tends to just melt off your face. It is long lasting, non-smudging and waterproof.

Hoe raak jou gesondheid jou welvaart?

To ensure that the correct colours and styles are chosen for you, your face shape and colourings are analysed and the pigments are chosen accordingly. Customer comfort is of utmost importance, therefor numbing agents are applied prior to the pigment “infusion” process, giving you a pain controlled treatment. A complimentary touch-up and aftercare products are also included in the price.

Indien die lewe jou geleer het om waarde te heg aan jou gesondheid, sal jy weet dat ware rykdom baie meer as net geld is. Hoe kan jy ooit die gemoedsrus verduidelik wat lê in die wete dat jou gesin en jou afhanklikes finansiële sekuriteit sal hê indien prostaat- of testiskanker of enige ander gevreesde siekte toeslaan?

Fine Eyeliner top and bottom in a Brown/Black

As die boodskap van Movember jou bekommerd maak oor die finansiële gevolge van onverwagte siekte, kan ek jou help beplan vir ’n finansiële toekoms wat die onvoorsiene in ag neem – sodat minder aangename verrassings nie jou of jou gesin in ’n finansiële verknorsing laat beland nie. As ’n Welvaartmeester van Sanlam, weet ek dat die eintlike waarde van ’n rand nie lê in wat jy daarmee kan koop nie, maar wat dit vir jou kan koop.

Non invasive procedure that effectively removes fat from targeted areas by ‘freezing’ to below -4 deg C eg abdomen , love handles,saddle bags and bra bulges. Cryolipolysis is not painful, neither is there a recovery period . typically 2 to 4 weeks after the procedure you notice a difference. your lymphatic drainage system continues to flush the dead fat cells away for several weeks. The results are comparable to liposuction as the cells are permanently destroyed. Client tummy frozen spECial 1 arEa FroZEN r1000.

How does this work?

► What is Reshape? Reshape is a weight loss program that primarily focus on fat loss. By using Lipolytic in combination with a very low calorie diet you will lose up to 30% more abnormally stored fat as opposed to a reduced calorie diet on its own. Bianca | Hair Stylist

► How does it work? The combination of the medication and the specially formulated eating plan will trigger the body to tap into your abnormal fat stores as a source of energy. By tapping into your fat reserves you will release a substance called leptin that will trigger your satiety centre in your brain and give you a feeling of “fullness”. Lipolytic also increases your serotonin (happy hormone) levels thus increasing your mood. The end result being: • Weight Loss (fat loss) • increased energy levels • Decreased hunger • Increased in mood

Eye-catching Kitchens A simple way to draw an appreciative eye to the kitchen is with a striking decorative light fixture. Decorative lighting is the proverbial eye candy in the kitchen; the element that makes a bold statement and adds visual interest. Hanging pendants and chandeliers are examples of decorative light fixtures. When shopping around for the perfect light fixture to jazz up your kitchen, consider the following: DESIGN STYLE. First consider your overall kitchen design style – modern and contemporary, country charm, vintage, retro, glamour, colourful or minimalistic. Your light feature should ideally blend in with the theme; although a cleverly designed kitchen can include two types of styles, for instance, a traditional kitchen complemented with an industrial-type pendant. Staggered pendants (pendants of varying lengths) are another creative and quirky way to add visual interest. The options are endless with regard to pendant styles – glass, metal, aluminium, nickel, pewter, copper, a suspended candlelight ‘tray’, bell-shaped, slim ‘drops’, round, square or rectangular. SIZE OF KITCHEN. A big kitchen can pull off a fairly large light feature, as a small one will be lost and unimpressive. If you have a small kitchen, smaller

pendants will still create interest but not overpower the space. POSITIONING. In most cases, your feature lighting is best situated above an island or dining room table. Islands tend to be in the centre of the kitchen making it a great place to draw the eye with a dramatic light feature. MULTI-FUNCTIONAL Decorative lighting is more than just looking pretty. They also provide task lighting (over an island they adequately light the area where food is being prepared or cooked), and ambient lighting (they bounce light off the ceiling, creating a softer ambience to the space). Visit Goozi to view our Ambiente Luce range of beautiful handcrafted light features.

WONDERLAND CAFÉ We arrived at the Wonderland Café within Super Plants on an overcast day. It had been raining intermittently during the day but the air was warm.

The kids were super excited and wanted to go and play no matter that it was drizzling at the time. After ordering milkshakes and coffee for us they went to play on the jumping castle and the indoor equipment. Yes, an indoor area where the kids can have some fun. At the first opportunity the girls moved to the outdoor play area. With the rain gone the girls took to the climbing wall and to the various other play gyms. The food arrived and boy were they famished. They enjoyed the chicken nuggets, hot dog and chips which forms part of the kiddies menu. We were served lasagna with a greek salad and a chicken burger and chips. The lasagna was a taste pleasure with the freshest salad. Lovely ripe tomatoes, crisp lettuce, feta cheese, onions and olives- with smooth salad dressing on the side. As for the chicken burger it was served with a chicken fillet & a bit of mayo, tomato, letters and chips and a bit of salad as a garnish. The chicken was soft and succulent … mouthwateringly delicious. The girls could not wait to get back to play and off they went. They even enjoyed some time at the miniature chess board. They went to see the birds, rabbits and monkeys. Dessert followed shortly…..lemon meringue. Wow what a taste sensation of absolute pleasure when you take a bit of the meringue and it simply melts in your mouth. All in all the venue is an excellent choice if you do not know what to do with the kids on the weekend. It offers a wide variety of entertainment for a small fee of R30 per kid and they can stay all day. There is also an area where you can host kiddies’ parties. What a great idea, means no cleaning afterwards and no stress worrying that something at home will be broken. Great for kids and great for you. We would like to thank Marietjie and her wonderful staff for a fantastic afternoon and making us feel right at home. Kathleen, Celeste and Theresa

he Tuscany style is best described by referring back to its people. The Italians infectious laughter, bold hand language and loud conversations, set the tone for the passion that these people have for life. To live in the Tuscany style you have to have passion, a longing for life. It’s all about the simplicity, the small things that bring happiness. It’s a lifestyle more than a décor style. Tuscany is a place you fall in love with at once. It’s a journey into harmony. When the mistress of the villa sets the table at night you sense that the culinary arts of Tuscany know no equal. Bold magnificent ancient homes, adorned with antique; oversized rooms where everything has been jealously preserved. Everything has echoes of the past, lovingly assembled by generations with an eye for beauty and a passion for life. Décor range from ancient Etruscan, middle ages and Renaissance. An old world romance. It’s in this style that frescoes and trompe l’ oeil dominate above any other elements. The historical value of wall paintings are far too important to the nation and celebrate centuries of this craftsmanship; complimented with the pale ochre stuccoed exteriors and earth tones that create an atmosphere of warmth. Walls become art pieces, eaten away by time and weather. Balancing between today and patinas of the past. Villas overwhelmed by green hills, oak, chestnut and cypress trees, stretches of vines and olive groves. But it’s also the intoxicating scents of roses, lemon blossoms and wild oranges wafting through the open windows at night that touch the spirit. The burning sunshine is a redoubtable enemy to be rejected by shutters inside and filtering out light into rooms as needed. An ambience of permanent siesta is created. Soft draped curtains play in the breeze over Romeo and Juliet balconies, with the discreet murmur of fountains as a back ground. Inside the villas the eye lingers pleasurably on venerable painted wardrobes, sturdy tables, rustic chairs, uneven tiled floors and rough white washed walls, an interesting setting for Empire furniture. An oil lamp is quite sufficient to create an atmosphere of comfort, next to a wrought-iron or brass bed. Traditional printed cloth “mezzen”

and rich tapestries fill sofas and daybeds. If you are lucky you may spot a Mariano Fortuny 18711949 damask piece, casually covering a stool. Ochre walls accentuate the bright colours of an earthenware pot and the warm tones of the furniture and fabrics. Most enchanting of all is the collection of frescoes and art on the walls. Wrought iron wall sconces, candle holders and shelves contrast dramatically with the walls. Old-fashioned utensils used by the “contadini” (country people) hanging above the marble sink and define the kitchen as the main room of any villa. Beneath a wrought iron chandelier, a long refectory table with matching benches form an ideal dining area; or a monastery table loaded with good food and fine wines. Pantry filled with earthen ware, preserved foods and old copper cooking ware. Medici urns and olive jars paired next to cut sunflowers, epitomising the charm of rural Tuscany. Big sideboards with spices, dry pasta, olive oil and vinegars of all kinds. The little luxuries of life. Beautiful handmade tiles and heavy carved fireplaces are essential to these splendid kitchen A loggia with a view of the garden, an area for alfresco meals. The furniture, for this outside room, mostly wrought iron or an old terrace table. Pots filled with geraniums and herbs. Sunbeams linger on the stone steps….. With a sundowner in hand, as the sun silently descends, one can take refuge from the outside world in the calm Tuscany twilight.

‘A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be at peace. What a man can be, he must be’….. Abraham Maslow Elmarie de Waal for Designee Décor 29 Main Road, Onrusriver elmariedewaal@hermanus.co.za

he much-loved garden violet goes back in history to the first century AD, growing in Syria, Turkey, North Africa and also in Europe. Loved and grown in both cottage gardens and the great palace gardens across the world, this charming herb has always been known as the flower of Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love. It was Napoleon’s favourite flower - Josephine wore violets on her wedding day and Napoleon gave her violets on every anniversary and finally planted them on her grave. The sweet violet was so loved by the Greeks that they made it the symbol of Athens. Warning: Never confuse the old-fashioned purple garden violet with the pot plant, African violet. It is only the garden violet or sweet violet (Viola odorata) that is used medicinally. The African violet is poisonous. ► CULTIVATION Resilient, tough, and an easy-to-grow perennial, it requires little except a well-dug bed with lots of compost dug in and a twice-weekly deep watering. In late winter and spring the flowers are at their most prolific, but you will always have a few flowers throughout the year and the heart-shaped leaves are evergreen. It literally never has an off period.
