Gardening Articles by Russell Fransham

I have been writing articles on gardening, landscaping and subtropical plants for many years. Below are a few of the articles, which have appeared in Alfresco magazine (www.alfresco.co.nz) which is a glossy quarterly with a fresh and offbeat approach to the house and garden theme. It is aimed at the adventurous gardener and has become a great success. I also write for Scene Magazine a monthly Whangarei Lifestyle publication, Weekend Gardener Magazine as well as snippets in other gardening-related National magazines.
