The Victoria Branch of the MGSForthcoming Events Sunday 26 September - Steel's Creek Numbers are not limited for the garden visit out to Jane and Malcolm Calders at Steel's Creek on Sunday 26 September. Their garden, vineyard, olive trees, quince walk and winery were burned over completely in the fires last year and the house was saved. I am looking forward to viewing the recovery as I saw it only 10 days after the fire. Past Events November 2009 We had our best yet get-together at Gary's garden on 21 November 2009. Eighteen members turned up and after a good look at the garden and all the restoration work that they had done, we set off to a local Turkish Café for a very long and chatty lunch. The garden is being completely done over with water-wise plants and it was good to see that they have planted a carob tree hedge. The young Ceratonia siliqua are growing well and everyone was thrilled at this idea instead of all the usual Buxus etc. Several members brought gifts of plants to share, that had been discussed at the previous meetings. The plantings at Gary's garden are only two or three years old and I hope that we may get to visit again in a few years to see the growth and progress.
