But firstly, if you don't mind,

last week we had a couple of technical issues, didn't we? Oh, yes.

And so after we got off air, a gentleman sent in a message on email and it was regards his Strelitzia.

Right.

Very interesting.

But his name is, I should find it, you mightn't have given me his name.

Anyway, we'll find it.

LAUGHTER

And, you know, what are we going to talk about today?

Oh, look, a lot of things.

While you've been away, the hippie astrums have started to flower.

What are they? Oh, they're beautiful.

They've come up from a bulb and they have a very big head of flowers on them.

And do they sing Give Peace a Chance? No.

But mine are, at the moment, mine are pink and white.

Shafers, not cock shavers.

Very-

Good girl.

Good girl.

Well, you know what? It suddenly hit me, now everyone's starting to put heating on, it's time to take note, and when you get up in the morning, uh, if you've had heating on, then start misting the maiden hair each morning, and this helps retain the moisture that have, that have evaporated during the night.

Mm.

They're very, very good value.

So what I s- um, going to suggest today is if, um, if you'd like something more modern looking with them, there's a plant called, um, it's called westringia, which has gray leaves, and you can cut them into little balls, you know, and shape them.
