Giving new season veggies the best start<br />
Whether you’re an experienced veggie<br />
grower or just starting out, Intelligro has<br />
everything you need to get stuck straight in<br />
and maximise Spring growing time.<br />
If you’re gardening straight into your<br />
land, Intelligro offers inhouse-created,<br />
specialty growing mixes to rejuvenate your<br />
soil and enhance plant growth. You can buy<br />
these by the bag or by the trailer load from<br />
their extensive yard facilities in Rolleston,<br />
or get it delivered.<br />
Their Organic Compost Garden Grow<br />
is ever popular. It adds vital nutrients,<br />
improves both moisture retention<br />
and drainage, and stabilises soil at the<br />
productive pH level of 7–7.5. What’s more,<br />
it’s BioGro certified as organic, giving you<br />
the best start for healthy veggies.<br />
If you’re gardening into planters or pots,<br />
then Intelligro’s Veggie Garden Mix is<br />
perfect. No soil needed – you plant directly<br />
into this mix. It blends natural, composted<br />
materials with fertilisers to provide the<br />
nutrient balance to enable a whole growing<br />
season for a wide range of vegetables.<br />
Because there’s no soil in it, it’s guaranteed<br />
that there’s no stray weed seeds – great news<br />
for gardeners!<br />
Speaking of planters, the Rolleston site<br />
offers a well-curated display showcasing<br />
the range of quality and attractive products<br />
available.<br />
There are planters of all styles, sizes and<br />
colours, a beautiful and locally made Apt<br />
Garden Creation wooden raised garden<br />
bed with canopy, and an extremely stylish<br />
Winter Gardenz glasshouse with multiple<br />
practical features.<br />
Vegepods have become the must-have<br />
item for gardeners who perhaps have less<br />
space and time – admire the planted-out<br />
display to realise how simple and practical<br />
the Vegepod is.<br />
Most of all though, the Intelligro team is<br />
bursting with ideas and advice, and loves<br />
talking through your needs. This is a threegeneration<br />
family business, and you can<br />
really tell the knowledge and passion that<br />
underpins their whole operation and ethos.<br />
If you can’t get instore, see the excellent<br />
and practical guides on their website,<br />
covering everything from veggies to<br />
flowers, general gardening, lawn care,<br />
landscaping, soil health and delicious<br />
recipes to celebrate your success! The<br />
“Twelve steps to establishing a veggie<br />
garden” is a very popular handout at this<br />
time of year. You can also call for phone<br />
advice.<br />
