I have a shadehouse and many plants in the patio,however we now have a
drought and can only water with buckets.I have a Jacaranda in full flower.
pansies in polystyrine boxes,but at the moment we can only water three times
a week,and no sprinklers or hoses.
I have carnations jist put in from seedlings but agin they are weedy.We have
to let the lawns die,at the moment.
Some people have roses but I put in minitures,and they are Yuk.at the
moment.
Regards
Fiona.
I am a Yorkshire woman and would love to see Forsythia again,and Christmas
Roses.

I plant it if it dies I don't plant another ,If it grows I buy
another.You

If you really want to grow temperate plants in tropical Queensland I've
seen
it done by erecting the opposite of a greenhouse - a shadehouse, using
tall
poles and thick green netting. You may need some extra moisture as well.
