August
The first daffodil opened on 17 July and now we are overwhelmed with the beautiful yellow blooms!
It's hard to believe but we are still harvesting these vegetables from our garden.
Currently harvesting: spring onions, celery, winter lettuce, silverbeet
In seed boxes:
brocolli, cauliflower, sugarloaf cabbage, silverbeet, spinach
Newly planted out in garden: Nothing - soil being prepared for planting out to start in 2-3 weeks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The succulent gardens have been weeded and expanded around the Lodge and Polehouse. We have a couple dozen varieties.
