@styptic.bsky.socialI love how #ABCtv #GardeningAustralia has just turned into money money money money money Rich People’s Gardens Home Owners Patronisng Sycophancy.
@hdclump.comThe National Gallery of Australia's Sculpture Garden has over 900 eucalypts. Gallery Landscape Manager Ben Taylor says they soften harsh light and create intimate interplays throughout the day. The garden is about to change.
@nettieb.bsky.socialI am still not a fan of the new #GardeningAustralia format. Any chance it could go back to the way it used to be and run for an hour and have the old theme music?
@gardening-goblin.bsky.socialThese succulent gardens belonged to Kiddo's great-grandmother.
They've not really been tended to since she passed away, so we're going to tidy them up & maintain them from now on.
@dstraughan.bsky.socialI have a worm bin and a compost tumbler, but I often end up digging the compost directly into the ground. The result is random trees – here are two avocados and one you can’t see hidden under the nasturtium foliage. I need to take those out and separate them. #GardeningAustralia
@hdclump.comA heritage-listed boab from the 1880s was slowly dying in a Darwin car park. The new building was shaped so it never shades the tree. It's flourishing now. This episode of Gardening Australia is full of decisions like that.
@gardening-goblin.bsky.socialStopped by the native nursery and accidentally bought a bunch of plants 😄
@gardening-goblin.bsky.socialI've now added a dwarf mandarin tree, strawberries, and jalapeño to the edible garden.
@hdclump.comPlants remove essentially every air pollutant tested, and they handle the worst ones most efficiently. In petrol vapour trials they stripped out the most carcinogenic chemicals first.
@gardening-goblin.bsky.socialA few casualties but the onee that have survived are doing quite well!
Little One loves having her own garden to water and pick flowers from.
@gardening-goblin.bsky.socialThe lavender is flowering very prettily 💚
@gardening-goblin.bsky.socialSome new natives to add to my edible garden!
Native Thyme (Prostanthera incisa)
River Mint (Mentha australis)
Bignay (Antidesma bunius)
@hdclump.comMore than 60 native species in a Sydney courtyard, plus a useful warning: “Australian native” doesn't automatically mean appropriate for your part of Australia.
A particularly practical Gardening Australia episode.
@gardening-goblin.bsky.socialThe irises that I transplanted have started to flower again.
I think the move has been successful 😀
