30 mm of storm rain in two days has enlivened the garden greatly, storm rain has a quality which stimulates growth far more than watering or ordinary rain. Science says it is due to the Haber process converting free nitrogen in the air to a soluble form via the electrical discharge, then again it could be the fairies.
The tomatoes are looking great, lots of blood & bone plus seaweed emulsion and Charlie Carp.
Pak Choy and beans are growing well, the pak choy looks like the first harvesting will be within a couple of weeks.
Some good growth from the sweet corn. I saw on Gardening Australia that they recommend planting lettuce on the southern side so I will do that.
This is going to be spectacular, it is the new season’s growth of the tree dahlia, last year it was superb. |  |
The front yard has received some attention, Helen, my neighbour gave me three shrubs whose name escapes me, they filled the space behind the three callistemon bushes.
The plant at the rear is an Abutilon (Chinese Lantern) I hope it grows as well as the label looks. |  |
At the front of the house the erigeron is in full bloom and spreading across the driveway.
