 Winter Water Wise Gardens Now that Top Enders are well into the dry and new plants are being established in gardens in Central Australia at this time of the year, gardeners are encouraged to check how their garden is going and to monitor their watering needs. In association with the Nursery and Garden Industry NT, Power and Water have developed some helpful tips on how to water more effectively and efficiently.
