celebrating: my new (very bare) vegetable patch. It's compact but should work well. I am going to try a four bed rotating system based on the one recommended by Peter Cundall in my favourite gardening book, The Practical Australian Gardener.
This week I planted three new citrus trees: a Washington Navel orange; a Tahitian lime; and an Emperor mandarin; so I am also celebrating that there is no fruit fly in Adelaide.
thinking: that I am going to have sore muscles tomorrow from all the digging I have been doing in the garden
planning: to sleep in tomorrow morning, and have an early night tonight
reading: the Diggers' Club catalogue, but strangely not feeling like buying anything at present
eating: mixed berry and ginger crumble with cream

I have found the germination rate with The Diggers Club to be not that great. However The Lost Seed (online store) highly successful.
I planted the exact same variety of three trees you planted. They have all done very well here(QLD)
The Washington Navel has probably been the slowest but the fruit is delico!! My tahitian lime is a prolific producer & my kids just love a squeeze of it on their broccoli-ever tried it??
Hi Xena,
Thanks for the tip about the Lost Seed. I'll look them up.
Caroline, I'm looking forward to trying lime juice on my broccoli. Thanks for the suggestion.
Kate
