Hello Melbourne Gardeners,
I accidentally bought a full sized Nashi Pear last month from Mount Taloepia Nursery instead of a dwarf.

It's hot this weekend - after a brief first Spring we are skipping second Spring and going straight to Summer. It's beautiful, blue and hot and today, at least, the poison wind seems to have died down. I've spent the morning ripping up all the weeds that appear to have exploded in the last week. …

Hi there,

Getting ready to plant some starts in a spot. Want to get a patch going as a medicine.Also, has anyone ever eaten horseradish leaf?
I only just realised that Rocket is probably not on the list because someone has posted Arugula, (I recently posted a request for Rocket to be added to the list).
Having both Rocket and Arugula on the list even though they are the same vegetable could possibly be confusing, however I think…
