Not much is new in the Australian Kitchen Garden. I've gone back to school (teaching) and am almost back at university (doctorate), so I'm letting the garden do it's thing. In some ways it's going to be really good for the garden - I tend to pick anything as soon as it looks half ready, such is my impatience. Now the garden gets a break to grow during the week.
My wife picked up some more spring onions to plant in amongst the current ones. While the first bunch comprised 11 onions, this latest one consists of only 7. They are big 'uns, however. I'm hoping they don't take over the little ones, as the family's spring onion appetite requires all 18 to be flourishing!
We had quite the downpour last weekend, with a 24 hour total of about 90mm (20 of those coming in half an hour). Luckily everything seems to have survived, although things just don't grow without sunshine. Darn it!
