Maintenance of School Buildings

With the ever decreasing Department of Education ( Government ) budgets allocated to schools for the maintenance of school buildings, finding a suitable contractor to offer his services at flexible rates is hard to find. School administrators have a diffcult task. Keeping school buildings safe and free of risk to injury of staff, learners and visitors is a challenge. There appears to be a " don't care attitude" on the part of parents whose duty is to pay their child's or ward's school fees. With many schools experiencing a severe shortage of funds as a result of this attitude, school administrators and governors are forced to employ debt collectors.

Below are  the details of a contarctor that will assist in meeting most of your needs. Give him a call!

Gardening Tips

Good Ideas for Planting Super Peonies

The peony is one of the longest living perennials that you will find.  There are two popular types of the peonies, and they are the herbaceoius and the tree peony.

It is best to plant the peonies at the back of your flowerbeds because they are larger plants.  In the springtime the peonies have beautiful foliage and beautiful blooms that are going to be produced in May.

Peonies will do their best in a place that receives at least a half a day to a full day of sun.  When the climate is too hot, you should think about providing some shade for the plants.

The right time to plant the peony is in the early fall but early spring plants do great too.  Make sure that you prepare the site good and make sure that you dig an oversized hole and fill it with compost. 

The secret of having a successful peony is to make sure that the tuber is positioned so that the eyes are located on the crown and covered with about two inches of soil.

Peonies are very particular and they do not like to be planted too deep.  If your peonies have quite producing flowers after a few years, you should see if they have fallen too low in their bed.  Maybe they had too much soil on top of them, which made them fall.

If your peonies seem to fall over by the mid summer, you should think about staking them. When you do go to cut the flowers, you should clip them when the buds are ready to unfurl.  When you put them into water, the blooms will soon start to open and this will go on for about a week when they are kept indoors.
