Melissa Goes Outdoor Entertaining Shopping

Presenter: Melissa King
Melissa loves it when she visits a place with the word mega in the name. This week she visited Mitre 10 Mega in Lilydale a place where you’re guaranteed to find everything you need for the home and garden in one place.
The Aussie lifestyle really is about getting outdoors and now that summer is here we are turning our attention to creating the perfect outdoor room.
Step One – the perfect outdoor setting. There’s your basic timber, metal and wicker furniture. Settings so good they wouldn’t look out of place in your living room. It’s all about choosing the right one to complement the style of your home and garden.
Step Two – The ultimate BBQ. At Mitre 10 you’ve got your basic everyday bbq, suitable for most families. But for those that like a bit of grunt the team at Mitre 10 have you covered with larger 4 burner stainless steel beauties. They even have you covered with bbq accessories including nifty new wood pellets that give off a flavoured smoke so you get an outback bush flavour to your meat.
With Australia’s long hot summers, you’ll also need shelter. The answer is a portable gazebo or shade umbrella, which can be moved around as the sun moves.
Now when you think of Mitre 10 you automatically think just hardware, but today that’s not the case, they’ve also got a good selection of plants, perfect for giving a finishing touch to your outdoor entertaining areas.
Bring colour to shady areas with sexy foliage plants like Heuchera ‘Stormy Seas’ in pewter, burgundy and olive hues. Or make sunny spots glow with vibrant dry-loving gaillardias and Chinese Star Jasmine is perfect cascading over pergolas and archways.
To keep your little oasis looking green make the most of their big range of water tanks and water saving products. When installing your tank you may need some big boys toys and Mitre 10 have you covered on this front too.
When it comes to DIY Mitre 10 is the ultimate playground with everything you could possibly need and plenty of knowledgeable staff to help you out.
But if you’re looking for someone to do it for you, then don’t forget the gurus have their very own garden design, maintenance and advisory service so for more info just check our the website.
