Which got me to thinking -- are there any other newsgroups that cater for
the Australian gardener? And if so, where can I source same? I would love

A small global group for the vege gardener is rec.gardening.edible
but the people there always seem 6 months ahead in their planting!!

But you will find days of reading at the google archive of past posts:
