As life has been getting away from me again, with my dad coming over at Easter and life in general, I’ll talk about what I’ve done recently and what I will do over the next month or so.

On Easter weekend, I cleared all dead plants out of the way and had a general tidy up, including a good sweep of my patio. I also sowed some broad bean and pea seeds out too. Some have germinated, but that is actually a surprise as not long after sowing, we had a crazy amount of rain and my pots flooded!

I have still been getting some little tomatoes off my plants. As always, they are really tasty and one of my favourites.

If I get chance this weekend, I’ll be sowing the following seeds:

• Sweet peas
• Broccoli
• Onions
• Poppies
• Any other autumn sowing seeds I fancy as I look through my seeds

Now that we are about half way through autumn here in Sydney, the weather is finally getting cooler. I’m so happy about this as I actually really English and wilt in temperatures higher than about thirty degrees Celsius!
