Diana says... Thanks, Brendan. That's a good site. I like her book (except that the pest section doesn't have 28 spotted lady beetles- one of the main pests in my garden). I don't know why the ABC radio Brisbane garden show is on at 6am on a Saturday. Everywhere else in Australia it is on at a more civilized time, it doesn't seem fair. After Daley's, my favourite sites for Queensland and subtropical NSW are: Information: http://www.greenharvest.com.au/ (and seeds, plants, books, pest control) http://www.bogi.org.au/ (and seeds, plants, garden products, books etc- but not web ordering) http://www.northeystreetcityfarm.org.au/nursery.htm (and seeds and plants- but not web ordering) http://www.tropicalpermaculture.com/ http://www.abc.net.au/gardening/ (of course) Seeds: http://www.greenpatchseeds.com.au/ (also plants) http://www.edenseeds.com.au/ http://www.theitaliangardener.com.au/ http://www.4seasonsseeds.com.au/ Plants: http://www.forbiddenfruitsnursery.com/products/ (scroll across catalogue pages to get to plants) http://www.earthcare.com.au/ (ginger, ginger relatives and tropical root crops) http://www.aussiedragonfruit.com/ http://www.gourmetlimes.com/ http://heartgarden.com.au/ http://www.allrareherbs.com.au/ http://www.herbalistics.com.au/shop/ http://www.herbnursery.com.au/ http://cactusisland.com.au/ (coconuts, some other food plants) Do you know any more?

Brendan says... Hi Diana, Wow, you have been busy. Thanks for ALL those good looking web sites, it's gonna take me days to check them all out :-) As for your 28 spotted lady beetle, check out this ABC site: http://www.abc.net.au/gardening/stories/s2748810.htm (One of Colins brews should work?) | About the Author Brendan Mackay, Q 19th January 2010 7:40am #UserID: 1947 Posts: 1722 View All Brendan's Edible Fruit Trees |

Rhys says... Another website i've made good use of is: http://myfolia.com I mostly use it to keep track of all my plants and for journaling their progress, but it also has nice social networking/forum aspect to it, as well as seed swapping. I like it so much i upgraded to a paid account. You can check out what i'm growing here if you're interested: http://myfolia.com/gardener/Getafix | About the Author Getafix Newcastle 18th September 2010 8:36pm #UserID: 3112 Posts: 86 View All Getafix's Edible Fruit Trees |
