Title: Re: [ozmidwifery] placental gardening
|
I've got two placental maca trees that are doing
very well 6 months and 4 years post-planting. Have also seen some lovely pots of
roses thrive on placentas, daisy bushes, star fruit trees, figs, jacarandas,
flame trees and many more.....I have seen a couple of hardy natives (can't
remember what variety particularly) cark it supposedly from overfertilisation on
planting. Makes sense to choose nutrient-loving rainforest species over
heathland species and others that naturally grow on a nutrient-poor
substrate.
Helpful?
Cheers
Penny

I don't know much about this and also tend to
kill plants!!
But one of my colleagues takes home unwanted
placentae for her roses - I will ask her what she does to them, apparently her
garden is lovely

Dear All
I can vouch for the following
plants
Camellia in a pot (very happy) 1st babe 6.5 years
ago
Grevillea (grew like bloody wildfire) nearly 5 years
old
David Austin old world Rose Only a bit sad due to drought
and a forgotten area of the yard - um ma! (3 years old)
Now what to
plant for the twins? Yes HUGE placenta. I have a huge garden but
virtually no space. I am thinking of something with a double flower
(yes I like matching and all that cutesy meaning stuff!!),
suggestions??
I planted the plant and placenta at the same time but
the Camellia was originally in the ground. I gave the placenta a fair
bit of space below the root ball of the plant.
I am a keen gardener
(yet dont know too much) and I would think as a rule anything that likes
blood and bone should do fine. A native (like a Grevillea) should be
an exception. I think Marys advice re staged planting is very
sound.
Perhaps ask what plants like rich soil and blood and bone type
additions.

placentas (and I said placenta planting was hippy when first
introduced to HB rituals, Ah how we eat our words!)
