Hi @Former-Member No sorry, I'm not planning on growing any summer veg.
I largely failed at vegie-growing school (except with Beans & Asparagas).
I'm sticking with what I'm good at - shrubs, trees & groundcovers.
If it has lots of flowers, then that's definitely a bonus.
My Naturtiums did so well, that they covered the entire backyard - I don't think they count as a vegetable, although they are used in salads (eaten).

Here is one of my Christmas holiday projects.
I want to clean this pond out and re-seal it.
Maybe a bridge over the top and put some fish in it 😁

This part of the garden is all full of cobbler pegs that I am slowly trying to dig out.
1/2 hour each afternoon so slowly getting there. I would usually spray then burn it but it is all wood chip under so that wont work here.

Love to be there tomorrow @Determined
I need to replant my succulents as they are getting to big for the little pots @Former-Member, @Adge, @eudemonism, @Former-Member

Sounds like a good idea @Shaz51
My Ogre Ears succulant (once tiny) - soon got way too big for its pot, & top-heavy.
It's been in a large pot for several years.
It's almost 1 metre high, half a metre wide, & weighs 30 Kg or so (too heavy to lift).
No spines, thank goodness...

Sticking with what works often the best option 😀
@Determined I think you might need to join the queue for Shazzle Dazzle's services ... she already has a waiting list for forum members house cleaning (53 at last count), although Mr @Shaz51 might be amenable to tackling your cobbler pegs and cleaning the pond. (Was it just me or did I detect an eye roll at the mention of fish 😀).

You may well have detected my darlings eyes rolling at the mention of fish @Former-Member lol.
Unfortunately there is a bit of work to get through before I tackle the fish pond but I am hoping to get something sorted over the Christmas holidays. All of our gardens are in need of some TLC so need to get that in order first.

Yes, thanks @Former-Member
The Honeyeaters absolutely love my Grevilleas, Bottlebrush, & Hibiscus.
I have about 10 large bushes (3m high).
One large successful Banksia (4m high), which the Wattlebirds love.
