Aloe vera can also be a practical grow, as the gel can be used to improve skin and hair!

Have you seen any of these critters in your garden? These are ladybird larvae and are one of the best helpers you could wish for!

This time of year comes with an influx of aphids, tiny insects which prey on your plants; suck the sap & weakening them. Ladybird larvae and ladybirds munch through aphids at a huge rate and are less harmful than pesticides.
