Hi All,
not much going on in the garden in Townsville in Autumn! The wet season is over and our block is very dry with cracks starting to appear where grass use to be when it was raining.
Autumn for me will be trying to keep some water up to the less established plants and feeding and fertilizing everything as needed. Our soil here is very low in nutrient and everything needs a lot of extra loving. On the bright side the weather is glorious, most days are between 25 to 30 degrees, but without the humidity now, and beautiful cool ocean breezes.
Kophton, I love the idea for your garden and can't wait to see it established. It is exactly how I want my front yard to be. It will take a while as I'm on an acre and am limited by manpower and finances, I will get there eventually and look forward to "borrowing" some ideas from you!
