Planted some Painted Lady beans today to make up for all the peas that
never came up :-(


Didn't you have trouble with Scarlet Runners last year?


Nah, few years back. I think climbing beans should either be planted in early
spring or late summer, so I'm trying them now. I can plant dwarf beans right
through summer.

PLanted punnets of tomatoes, chillies, eggplant and capsicum, and perilla.
Will put them in my mini-greenhouse to encourage early germination.

And I crawled around the back yard pulling up bindies :-/

Front yard has heaps more bindies...

I have lots of lemons. Silver beet and beetroot are doing well.


Our beetroot was a total failure this year :-((


Is it too late to plant more? It's an all-year plant in Sydney.

Mmmmm, summer vegies...
