Well Summer is here. We have felt the brunt of the first storms for the Season, some of us left with a mess to clean up and others with some lovely rain added to their tanks. As we feel the extremes of Summer so do our Flowers, Vegetables, Herbs, Plants and Trees. Whilst some are very good at coping with the stresses of Summer others need help. So it's time to think about how we can help our plants along.
Mulching is important, as is keeping the water up. There are many forms of…

Thank you Dianne for the welcome and all the information. Sorry it took so long to get back, I've been unwell. Definitely interested in some garden visits, though don't think I have very much to offer at this stage.

Thank you Dianne! I'm excited to do some visits - though this Saturday I have earmarked for the Garden Show at Nambour! Keen to get some good learning in, I'm only what I consider a level one gardener (only just able to keep things alive without killing them at this stage) so I have a lot to learn.

Hi Dianne, Thanks for that lovely welcome email. I am just about drooling over your photos - your garden and kitchen are amazing! I can't decide whether to explore BLF's pages more, or rush out into the garden and plant coriander and nasturtiums right now!
