Brrr...its cold

Well it is really getting cold now :) the garden has slowed down alot but that means its time to to plant snow peas!!! yum

Here are mine about 2 weeks out from being planted

There are also a few new additions to my garden. a herb pot with

• Curry plant
• parsley
• marjoram
• oregano
• thyme
• garlic chives



mmm yum

 I also have a new blueberry 'brigitta'. It fruit jan-feb and apparently the blueberries hang in bunches like grapes :) sounds delicious. And another raspberry, this one is a bit different though, you know raspberries as being red but this one is a goldy yellow

It should look like this



Extra yummy

They dont sell these at bunnings....lol...but if you want one go to http://www.diggers.com.au/

We are starting to get some beautiful colours in the garden, from the yellows of the pomegranate/nectarine/nashi pear to a gorgeous red of one of my blueberries

For those in the pakenham area my best friend and i will be having a stall at the market next month (not sure of the date but will check!) Where we will be selling homemade blackberry and homemade plum jam :) as well as an assortment of cookies/slices etc and seedlings (snowpeas, onion, rainbow silverbeet, sage and rosemary and maybe even some seed potatoes, if i can spare them :) I will post details when i have them.




Rosemary and sage seedlings ready for market

Other than that my onions and beetroots are thriving even without direct sunlight (bloody sun is to low in the sky and i have massive fences) i have been trying to reflect sunlight with a mirrow from inside with mixed success. The bananas took a bit of a battering with the hail the other week but are still looking great!
