Are there any backyard veggie gardeners here?

We have so many plums that the birds can eat as many as they want.
However we covered our White Peach tree with netting.  We also have a lot of small Apples.  I think the bess were very busy.

DH brought me a Dragon Fruit plant yesterday. I am thrilled. I just have to learn how to plant it and look after it. Robyn do you have any growing at your place?

Cookie I recently joined 2 gardening groups, they’re both great at answering these types of questions.  1) Australian Gardening Group. 2) The Succulent Library

Yes go into Facebook and put the name into the search bar, you then ask to join the group.

Mum is great thanks cookie, she has now forgotten the recent loss.

Picked a few of the only remaining fruit (plums) in our garden yesterday (the birds got everything else).  They were lovely and sweet.  I left most on the tree for our neighbour's Aunty Bev to make jam with.  The only reason these plums survived was because we had netted them!  The birds LOVE our garden.

I feel very sorry for the wildlife just now - we don't have a single bit of edible grass for them in our garden - even the weeds are dessicated and brown.

The tomatoes are coming with a rush.
The birds are enjoying the Apples.
