It has been unseasonly warm here in Sydney and the early planting of cabbage has paid off. It is well on it's way. Carrots are in, Chantilly & Harelquin, with a scattering of radish. Baby beets are I also.
The strawberry plants I put in the hanging planters are looking good and have settled very nicely.i have a few more of the planters leftover, they have pre-cut holes for plants, just fill with soil and pop the plant in. I think more strawberries will have to be done this way. Perhaps throw some nasturtium in.
Having let the Pak choi go to flower and the local bees coming in each day, I have pulled them up and have the seed pods drying.
My mandarin is blooming & smeels devine, but with all the trouble it has had over the 18 months I've had it, I hope it fruits. Possums stripped it bark and all.
The front yard is filling with freesia's and jasmine, the scent of Spring well and truly in the air.
