First ripened pod from Jamaican Baccatum pepper, very fruity flavour with a slow burn
Heat would be just under a red jalapeno but more fruity

Despite the scorching summer heat the watermelon,cucumbers and strawberries are doing well, plus we haven't had any bees around for 12 months since the Varroa mites affected the state's been colonies #Gardening 🌱 #gardeningaus

I dug up the remaining potatoes while the soil was dry and apparent rain arrived
Not a bad haul from half a dozen spuds as seeds 🥔🥔

Nectarines I'm hoping to enjoy before fruit flies attack
Unfortunately the rosey red fruits are still rock hard, so I can't pick them yet

More Grevillea spam. They just stop me in my tracks. This one I came across in the Sydney suburb of Kensington.

Guess which way the wild winds were blowing for 3 days
Lots of rain also filled up old pots, luckily frogs can swim, unfortunately lizards cannot

The bleeding hearts doubled over like a clam after very strong winds and rain got behind the mass of foliage, it's probably too late in the season to retrain the vine #GardeningAUS #Gardening 🌱

3 types of melon finally fruiting with pyrethrum helping keep the pests away
Not sure if the lite green/white melon is a rockmelon or honeydew melon

My ginger has not yet gone dormant despite being mid winter with single digit temperatures overnight
There's a couple of new green shoots appearing

Basil plants growing as companion plants have fared well in the scorching heat.
This Thai basil plant had been attracting Eastern Rosellas earlier in the week before the temperatures got higher, at least cockatoos aren't attracted to basil like they are to sunflowers

Sword Lily (Crocosmia x crocosmiiflora) is a striking bulbous plant native to France. Sadly it’s an invasive weed here in Australia. It’s highly adaptable and out competes native plants in Aussie bushland. ❌🙅‍♀️

After a week of hot temperatures, even the hardy plants were looking poorly today's 42C
It's rare to see watermelon foliage wilting because they love hot temperatures, however rhubarb doesn't, we need the rains again

Laurentia ‘Pop n Fizz’. A small, mound shaped Australian native that is covered in masses of purple flowers over the Summer months.
Great name for a great plant. 💜

A few days of welcome rain must have disturbed a paper wasp clan
I could see about 8 wasps hiding under corn leaves, one looked like it was ready to attack as it turned towards me taking the photos 🌱 #Gardening #GardeningAus

Pest control herbs & marigolds have attracted the first honey bees to my garden in 3 summers since the varroa mite killed off hives around the state
2 bees arrived just after Xmas, each couple of days more bees arrived, today I counted 7 awesome honeybees 🐝🐝

Today's 41 C temperature was hard on the garden yet the increase of winds day and night since spring began has been the biggest battle in keeping moisture in plants & soils, even after a good downpour of rain the winds haven't been kind, and summer has just begun 🫣

Only 4 dry sunny days since 10th of May, blooms have been few and far between
Last day of autumn has probably been the coolest, warm temperatures & lots of rain has some plants flowering yet winter colour foliage
