FEBRUARY IN THE GARDEN
Temperatures are still warm, and the plant list for this month is long. Keep the earth around your plants covered with mulch to help retain water and moisture in the heat.
Patchwork shares the plant list for February. See it here.
A GIFT THAT BECOMES A MEMORY
This Valentine’s Day, skip the chocolates and give something that turns into a memory.
Surprise someone special with swimwear they’ll actually use – stylish bikinis, flattering one-pieces and comfy shorts that say, “Let’s make a day of it.”
Pack a picnic, head to the beach, soak up the sun and create moments that last longer than flowers ever could.
Because the best gifts aren’t things… they’re experiences shared together.

URGENT CALL FOR WATER SAVINGS AS CAPE TOWN DAM LEVELS DROP
With our dam levels currently at 66,3% and annual rainfall significantly lower than in previous years, residents are encouraged to reduce water usage wherever possible to conserve our water supply.
While taps are not at risk of running dry at this stage, continued high water use could rapidly change the situation and result in restrictions unless consumption is brought down urgently. Early proactive measures are far more effective than emergency restrictions so let’s reduce our usage and be water wise.
Tips to help reduce water usage:
Find and fix water leaks on your property
Monitor your usage and save water where possible
Report burst municipal pipes immediately
Switch to treated effluent re-use for industrial irrigation or construction usage
Report a fault
Use one of the channels below to report a water issue and remember to provide an exact location or street address.
Call 0860 103 089 (select Option 2)
SMS 31373
WhatsApp 060 018 1505
Email water@capetown.gov.za

It’s a wonderful opportunity for children to experience being on stage!
