Holy moly wasn’t your water connection added into the house?? That’s insane! Mind you we have just received an electricity bill for $700+ because we have had to pay for a new connection for our Solar hot water NOT HAPPY JAN!!! Omg love the plants I’ve heard a lot of good things about that place in Tambo! I better go and inspect! Hey Flea, Nope no connections added I didn't even think to open the box I jut assumed the meter would be there. Grrrrrr. Holy catfish $700 with the connection is a bit rough, seems like such a waste but I hope the solar saves you in the long run. It's the green and gold nursery in tambo I found it ok but it helps if you know your plants and if they can tolerate sun or not or need canopy. The Jimboomba Market that's on this Saturday is supposed to be a cracker for plants. I went to the Beaudesert market the week before (I spent 90% of my time trying to pry my eldest of the donut van but all good ) Re: Bold Living + Us + South East Queensland = Housing the T 108Oct 17, 2017 12:51 pm cat_dunc I was talking to Mum and realised Tambo is probably short for Mount Tamborine.. FYI there’s a Tambo in Victoria too Hey Cat, It's a little weird, Tamborine Mountain is up the hill but Tamborine is in the valley behind the mountain, Guanaba and Maudsland are at the front of the Mountain (Google maps it and put me out of my misery please ) I'm useless at trying to explain things some times. I've been to lots and lots of nurseries and the best I've found is Toni down at Berrigans Nursery, they are on Berrigans Road at Mudgeeraba. Her prices where the best on palms and a vast majority of everything else. She has a massive variety and can order anything else you need too. I'm actually about to place a order for a heap seeds and plan on striking them myself. For example 30 Cordyline seeds are $3.30 one 30cm high plant can be $10 each. Have you got time to propagate or do you want a instant garden? Re: Bold Living + Us + South East Queensland = Housing the T 110Oct 17, 2017 6:13 pm 😂😂😂😂 this is gold, I didn't realise it was altered till Mrs Smart A@#e 😂😂😂 I thought that's the coolest street name my daughter would love to live there. Packing is still ongoing. Sucks doing it with the kids. Hubby is away now until after the move. Lucky him. I've spent all day taking loads to the new place as they gave us early Access to the shed as the other block settles on Friday. Which has been handy as we had a container and other sundries out there. Not to mention about a hundred star pickets. My arms are sore now! Anyway It is a real yes?? I'm super excited for you guys, congrats and bring on the build xo Re: Bold Living + Us + South East Queensland = Housing the T 112Oct 17, 2017 6:52 pm Tribe7 fleabee86 Hey Tribe!

I went to the Beaudesert market the week before (I spent 90% of my time trying to pry my eldest of the donut van but all good ) Oh man! I wish they had of added it into the cost of the house for you guys!! That’s just bull I have been to the Jimboomba markets but as you already know plants aren’t my thing wish I could win the lotto and just pay someone to do it all for me!! I could just tell them what I was thinking and BAM it’s done You’ll never believe it but I lived in Beauy for 5 years and never once went to the markets there but I totally get the donut thing Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ I had this monster on Friday night at eat street think I’m still recovering Re: Bold Living + Us + South East Queensland = Housing the T 113Oct 17, 2017 9:47 pm hahaha love it - whooohooo congrats the loan is approved! Party time! ::cheerleader:: Cordy seeds!? I hadnt even contemplated seeds for them. Pleeease I'd love the link to your seed site of choice if you could share it. I looked at buying some on the weekend. 60 FREAKING DOLLARS for a knee high cordyline at one place! Lee Rowans and Bunnings were cheaper, but still not much less than $30. I can propagate and grow.. though I'm a tincy bit impatient I need about 60 murraya plants. I bought 8 okay sized ones for one section I'm too impatient for.. and the rest will be cuttings i'll try grow myself. My hedge might be grown maybe by the time the kids move out I signed up for Alpine Dural wholesale nursery but I haven't heard back. I really need to follow it up. I'm not sure if they sussed out my ABN which you need to sign up there isn't all that active Re: Bold Living + Us + South East Queensland = Housing the T 116Oct 29, 2017 2:54 pm Tribe how’s it going???
