Relaxing veggie garden tour at dusk - Melbourne
Hi folks,
Join me for a relaxing tour of my Melbourne veggie garden where I discuss my new turf lawn - a variety of buffalo called Viridian Velvet, fruit trees and staggered ripening, my tomatoes and how I like to store and freeze them, previous straw bale growing methods, zucchini issues, keeping chooks and plans for the new chook pen.

Hope you enjoy this little tour of my veggie garden in late spring here in Melbourne, Australia. *corection, when talking about the self seeded tomatoes, I meant to say “now that we DON’T have a male dog anymore”. Sadly our gorgeous Frankie passed away earlier this year. But it does mean I don’t have to worry about my ground level plants getting wee’d on anymore. #gardening #garden #growyourown...

    It's not blossom-end rot on your zucchinis, it's poor pollination. Get out there early in the morning and pollinate and you'll get lots.

      ​@@the.bee.friendly.gardenerI have a Hass avocado tree that was planted in the 80's by my uncle. It took many years to fruit but one year we had about 100 avocado's. Then every year we have less. The weather in Melbourne is very unpredictable but we keep it for sentimental reasons.

    • @thegardenlikesdad
      @thegardenlikesdad 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Strange how it works sometimes. I am usually about three weeks later than most other gardeners I know in our local area for flowering and ripeness of....pretty much everything; strange hey!

    • @the.bee.friendly.gardener
      @the.bee.friendly.gardener 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Good question! The apricot is a ‘Storey’ variety which is an early fruiter. As for the blueberries - perhaps because they were planted against a west facing brick wall which acts like a bit of a heat sink. Good luck with the apricots! Mine have all been eaten now sadly. They were so good!!

    I bought a dwarf mulberry earlier this year too. It started leafing up then turned yellow and dropped all it's leaves. I thought I'd lost it but now it's returning with bright green healthy looking leaves. I hope yours comes good too. Cheers!

    • @the.bee.friendly.gardener
      @the.bee.friendly.gardener 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Sounds like yours is on the right trajectory! Fingers crossed mine follows suit. The nurseryman I spoke to was quite encouraging and said they’re fairly resilient trees, whereas the persimmon might be a bit more finicky…

  • @adamwdotnet
    @adamwdotnet 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I can definitely relate to buying more plants and not necessarily have space for them 😂

  • @thegardenlikesdad
    @thegardenlikesdad 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

    There is a lot to love about your plot! The espalier against the sunny wall for one; textbook awesome! Love the fact that the fig tree is from your family home too, good feels :). Re the pears, always take the high road and give the fruit evenly, or take the low road and give them ALL the fruit and remind them of it constantly 😂....but y'know, take the high road hehe. If the mulberry has some green as you say in the stem cambium layer, should be right, hopefully the warmth gets it going :). Is it a white or red shahtoot? "Give your plants a chance" is a great motto, my wife has saved many trees from my uprooting and has been right every time, they always came back. Apologies for the long comment, but one last thing: man, those APRICOTS! They're beauts! One of my fave stone fruits, and the low chill variety (a marcot from down south) I've had in the ground has yet to even flower after three years in the ground... happy for your success here!

    • @the.bee.friendly.gardener
      @the.bee.friendly.gardener 19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks so much for your lovely comment! I’ll take your advice about the pears ha ha - splitting them evenly that is! The mulberry is a red variety, do you grow mulberries? Ahh apricots… I think they’re my favorite. Mine is a 3 year old tree and has flowered the past few seasons but hasn’t borne fruit until this year. The flowers alone are spectacular, and you can’t beat a home grown apricot. Fingers crossed for some fruit from yours next year!!

      Not this year unfortunately! I have grown standard butternut and wrinkled butternut pumpkins in the past, which were excellent, but a lot of my seeds are in storage elsewhere due to the shed renovation. Do you have any recommendations for pumpkin varieties you like?

  • @Chris-op7yt
    @Chris-op7yt 21 วันที่ผ่านมา

    for a handful of tomato plants, you can get away with tying up to a stick. i typically grow a dozen of indeterminate plants, and have found sanity by investing in making a solid support structure i can hang strings from and use commercial clips. i also grow about 3 bush tomato variety Rebel F1 or similar, which is a determinate and requires no tying up at all, as grows close to ground without spreading too much. i've found the whole mulching and composting thing to be expensive and spent too much time doing it, and it was making my soil even more hydrophobic. commercial growers dont mulch. i bought a dripline irrigation kit from US for the veggie patch, because local offerings are overpriced and other issues. i got rid of raised beds and finally grow in easy to manage and dripline water and fertilize rows. each to their own, as we all have different needs. i will say that i wish i knew earlier that most of the marketing hype of raised beds online was just that. anyhow, happy now without them. keep growing.

    Greetings from Far North Queensland. What a lovely garden :) stumbled across your channel in the recommended vids, so glad! Aside from all else, your tour just makes me really want to grow runner beans again! Used to grow them in England, and they are only matched by snake beans in how much they give and give for so little! Looking forward to getting to know your patch through your vids, looks like I have some catching up to do! 😅
