And another reminder to me to label 😅 I love that there's always something new to learn in the garden. Always experimenting and exploring. Happy gardening! 🌱
Wow, I love your content. I found you yesterday by accident and watched a couple other of your videos before this one. I'm just starting to attempt to transform my 'garden' (use that term loosely lol) from a weed and kikuyu (aaggh, bane of my existence!) infested area, to a productive food and decorative garden. I have a little experience but am still basically flying blind and I've a long way to go, so all help is gratefully received. Seeing what you do and what you grow there in Perth is so inspiring and gives me motivation. I live in Toowoomba, Qld (zone 9b), so probably not quite as hot as Perth, but not too far off, and it gets very windy here also as I'm on an elevated site with precious little shade and my back garden faces west so plenty of hot sun. I'm just amazed at all the things (and the quantity) that you're growing. You're clearly very passionate about it and that's infectious, which is helpful bc when I hit a 'roadblock' it can be a bit dispiriting. One of the problems I have is a somewhat clayish soil. I've spent the last 4 years improving the soil (and trying to kill off the kikuyu) in one area and have successfully planted up in there, but a lot still remains to be done. Sometimes feels like a 1 step forward and 2 back situation, so I appreciate your enthusiasm and great tips! Do you have any qualifications in gardening or are you just self taught? Cheers from Qld.
Yay welcome! The best way to learn is by doing! Which is exactly how I have learnt. I have an interesting video coming up about Kikuyu actually 👀 I find it's best to start with one garden or project at a time and try to get it up and going before moving on that way you tackle projects rather than one big garden 🤗
@@SustainableHolly during winter here in SA they ate all my tomatoes that were still growing and got in under my vegepod cover and ate all the broccoli and kale, it was so frustrating that I nearly gave up gardening
6:20 😮 that much buddy tape for a tiny graft? You are wasting it big time. You know it can be stretched 7 times right. I only use buddy tapes on grafts that require long time to heal like mangoes. Passionfruit grafting can be easily done with cheaper parafilm.

Hey Holly. So fun. Im glad you said about passionfruit being hollow. I would have thought mine was strange ha. Thankyou for all the info😊
So strange! 💚
Thank you
Thanks for that Holly, very informative, I'll be sure to give it a go when I start growing passion fruit.
Thank you! Hopefully get to see these all fruit this summer too!

Do an expo on the bulldog sometime. A bio or something 🤣🇺🇸
I was out yesterday pollinating my passion fruit with a paint brush. A rat ate all mine last year so this year I will net them
Oh no! I have a neighbourhood rat family in my neighbours tree hopefully they don't need my fruits this year.

Grafting inspo thanku and i also need to label.u think u will remember but.......
Actually the hardest part 😂😂😂
Good Wishes Needs 75 Millions+ To belong to Farming gardening .thanks. Our Onlines Class Mates .
Wife asks why the whole graft was taped including the scion.
It's think biodegradable tape that keeps it moist. The bud can easily break through. A little zip lock bag can also be used instead
You have added a new bud to existing vine of passiflora plant. Please show the results too!

I think it's called 'budding ' tape. ☺
@SandD55 oh I thought you using japanese aglis buddy tape that cost 100 aud a tape. My bad.😊
Agree it was cold so I didn't stretch it as well as I could!
