It's funny, but most of the things that you call summer crops are our winter ones, along with proper winter ones as well!

The corn stalks provide support for the climbing beans; the big leaves of the squash provide shade for the roots and conserve moisture and suppress weeds; the beans fix nitrogen in the soil for all three to use.<br />Our seasons are diametrically opposite: I'm just toying with the idea of sowing my first bean seeds of the year...Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3244931229580757973.post-10523980379454139492011-04-03T12:50:54.503+10:002011-04-03T12:50:54.503+10:00Hey Hazel, these pics could very well be from my v...Hey Hazel, these pics could very well be from my vegie garden.<br />We have plenty of toms and beautiful purple beans, second crop of silverbeet is kicking on.
