A day with friends of Nangawooka planet The Australian Plant Society and the Friends of Nangawooka Flora Reserve, corner of Waterport and Victor Harbor roads, are holding their autumn plant sale and open day on Sunday, April 23 from 11am-3pm. savers It's like a gathering of green fingers, and among the many features will be free soil testing, free garden tours, specialist native plant growers selling a wide range of plants, a sausage sizzle, and morning and afternoon tea for sale. The plant growers can advise what to plant and where, and suggest ways of using native plants to their best advantage. Autumn is here, and the Banksias, Callistemons and Thryptomenes are putting on a great show. The Eremophilas (Emu Bushes) have been particularly colourful this year after the wet winter. The Acacias are starting to flower also and the Melaleucas continue to blossom in all shades from orange through to delicate pink. Hakea clavata is scenting the air with its beautiful unusual pink flowers too. Entry is free, but a gold coin donation would be appreciated. The reserve is maintained by a dedicated band of volunteers, and The Friends of Nangawooka are always looking for new members.

The aim of the Futoshiki puzzle is to fit the numbers 1 to 5 into the 5x5 grid, so that every row and column contains every number only once. You also have to satisfy the less than (<) and greater than (>) signs. A less-than sign, <, means that the number it points at must be less than the number on the other side of the sign. Turned around the other way it becomes a greater-than sign, >, but the logic is still the same - the number it points at is smaller than the number on its other side. By paying attention to these inequality signs, some of the possibilities from the squares can be eliminated. Each Futoshiki puzzle has only one solution.
