In a world where resources are finite and environmental degradation is a looming threat, the importance of being self-sustainable has never been greater. Self-sustainability means living a lifestyle that relies less on external resources and more on self-sufficiency, including growing your own food, generating your own energy, and reducing your waste.
The Coromandel region of New Zealand is home to many different types of weeds, some of which can be harmful to your garden. Here are three weeds that you should look out for:
The subtropical climate of Coromandel is generally warmer and more humid than other parts of New Zealand. This means that certain plants, such as citrus trees, avocado trees and fig trees, thrive in the area. These plants can provide a bountiful harvest, making them popular among new gardeners, especially because they are easy to grow! You will need a warm and sunny spot in your garden. The tree should be planted in well-draining soil, in a position where it will receive at least six hours of direct sunlight per day (eight for citrus).
