Report written by Kash
Kash used her Tuesday lunch break again to run to West Ealing and do some planting in Dean Gardens. Auberon from Cultivate London and a local volunteer Luke were already busy with spades and plant pots. Kash grabbed a spade and quickly dug new holes to plant various baby plants from the plant nursery. Some of the plants were very stubborn - especially kniphofia. They had such robust root systems that there was almost no soil left in their pots: it was all roots that grew through the holes at the bottom of the pots. Auberon had to perform surgeries and cut open a couple of pots to release the naughty kniphofias. Hopefully, such strong roots will make the plants survive the winter and thrive in the spring!
Cultivate London is a charity that provides horticultural services using sustainable, organic and biodiverse methods. They work with communities, businesses and local government to create and maintain enjoyable and sustainable urban green spaces and give local people the opportunity to learn and engage in food growing.
