sounds like you have a veritable smorgasbord in your garden


Not quite. My husband has no idea how much more lawn he will need to dig up this year.  I need more space. I'm looking at expanding production here lol.

Look, I love gardening. I just do.

It's an opportunity for me to be creative and well...it's a form of escapism for me (from the never ending housework here).

There's something intrinsically soothing to the body and soul.....producing something healthy, organic, fresh...sharing knowledge and produce with everyone around you..it injects positive energy in a synergistic way.

I can talk gardening for ever lol....sorry.

Oooh just one last thing before I go... I should add that gardening has taught me something very special...to respect nature and land. We ought to be more responsible IMO. Our future depends on how much we respect our environment TODAY.

John does. She wants to meet him but she will have to discuss it with hubby over breakfast this morning.....will he agree or not? tune in for episode 2 tomorrow?


You sound jealous.

Anyway, enough of your never ending bitter and twisted off topic rubbish....be gone!

Back to GARDENING.

I now have all my winter cos lettuces and broccoli planted....65 of the former...15 of the latter.

My potatoes are coming along just fine...the chokos are finishing up though.I only picked half a dozen this morning, I usually pick more  Cry

Broad bean plants are vigorous and hardy plants...so they're doing very well. I planted them in 2 stages this year...just to see if I can stagger the yield. I'm aiming for 35 kilos (have a few Greek & Italian rels/neighbours waiting for them)...so I'll be weighing and distributing them in 1 kilo lots and keeping a tally.

Our passion fruit vine looks awesome.  We counted some 55 fruit.....all slowly coming through in their various stages of maturity. We've already eaten a few (and given away even more). Have to say, we're pleased (or should that be relieved) that the insides are full of sweet pulp and juice. One of our neighbours had the misfortune of finding the insides of his passion fruit very dry and with a thick inner rind.  He's waiting for a few of ours now.

Mothers Day flowers are in full bloom here atm. I'm not into the white and yellow variety (probably because these colours are so common and therefore boring IMO). Anyway, there's lots of blood red, fiery orange and soft pink chrysanthemums out the front and they're just beautiful. Pity, I basically lost all such flowers in our backyard due to the recent Sydney super storms.

Anyway...that's pretty much it for today.

Have a safe Anzac Day everyone.









bwahahahaha!!!!

Garden ruined one day, all better the next.

Do you want some broad beans John? or some choko's for your chickens. Actually, I know who might take the choko's off your hands lisa, aquascoot, he has horses.

Oh yeah! happy gardening and thank ya mother for the chicken.

Yep.

I'm also against deforestation....as in the rape and pillaging of our natural environment.

Whilst here... you may as well know that I'm also totally against the steady loss of our backyard space.

Our kids deserve better. We're ripping them off. I don't think that's right. It will come back to haunt us.

Perhaps now you might appreciate why this gardening topic is so impt to me and why it ought to be impt to everyone else who posts in here.

I visualise our natural environment as a type of Noah's ark..it's keeping us safe.. and alive.

As such, we ought to show it respect. Our children and their children etc deserve the chance to be safe and to live.

Our generation ALREADY has a lot to answer for. And that makes me angry.

That's not trolling, we all love and admire her. Don't tell me you want her too Rhino? I think she's way out of your league, she has class, does our Lisa.

Why do you care?      

And, if Lisa stopped making unprovoked attacks on me, she would not get responses from me.  That'd be easy to work out, yeas?
