Spring has well and truly sprung in our pocket of the world.
Time to get the garden looking springy
Today our veggie patches are getting a decent fill with compost and a redo, ready for the tommies which is our biggest grower and of course our zucs, cucumbers, and all the fun things
At one point over the summer last year we were picking tomatos 10 a day.
The Rural garden supply loves to see me!!
Whats everyone planting

@Shaz51 what type of plant is that one? With the red leaves in the centre? Some type of begonia without dots?
In response to: Re: ITS GARDEN TIME 🌿
Shaz51Senior Contributor
Yes @AlwaysMyself it should have spots
But it is losing the spots and I don't know why ?
Love to find out why

Wow @DownMoreThanUp your garden is incredible!! That must have take some work to get it like that. It really looks amazing well done 😊
Love everyone else’s plants!!
@Shaz51what are your plants called? I think they are similar to the ones I was watering at my friend’s place. I was admiring there colour but also how the water would fall over the leaves when I was watering them 😊. Spent a bit too much time with the lizards there (lol) so the water pressure might have been a bit much for a bit of time but I am sure they appreciated the drink lol.

30+km p/hr wind outside, coastal rosemary taking the brunt of the wind. First 2 photos of kalanchoe I planted last year.

I did some "chaos gardening" last year @ArraDreaming - just threw a bunch of seeds into a garden bed (mostly natives but also some others) and just waited to see what grew. I've also got quite a few bulbs that are popping up. This pretty purple flower caught my eye today!
