Everyone seems to be talking about Artificial Intelligence and how it will affect those of us working in the horticulture communications industry. Will Artificial Intelligence take my job as a garden communicator?

I recently attended a number of information sessions in the USA regarding AI and how it will affect my work as a garden communicator. Everyone is talking about Artificial Intelligence. It’s the hottest topic of conversation right now.

The Writers Guild of America and SAG Actors (and now the Los Angeles garbage collectors and airport workers as of yesterday) in the USA, are currently on strike. Unions are trying to get a better deal, in respect to AI technology and how it will affect their work and future earnings. This conversation needs to be had and a suitable and fair agreement needs to be met. Importantly, content creators like actors and writers, do need protection which they currently do not have. This is making news around the world and AI technology is advancing extremely fast.

New planters for the front verandah

So, I had some surgery on my thumb about a week ago and am one very frustrated gardener!

I received notification that two new urns that I ordered, had finally arrived in and were ready for collection.

Number 2 daughter, Georgia, is nearly always a willing assistant gardener in between her Nursing studies and her Harry Styles obsession, and so last Saturday morning, we set off early to collect the new urns.

My excitement obviously much greater than hers at this point. Saturdays are for sleeping in aren’t they? Well, they might be for most people (especially university students) but even with a bandaged thumb, not for me.

Our new garden project was well underway, can’t think of a better way to enjoy a Saturday morning, spending time with your daughter and gardening, is there one?

Well, a new urn is not complete without plants, right?! So let’s just say some plants needed to be purchased, along with some fresh new potting mix.

Each urn sits either side of our double entrance doors and so they need to be in perfect symmetry with each other for balance.

I selected some lightweight fibreglass planters that are about 70cms high.
