So I'm renting a house and it had this really annoying bamboo plant. Along the back fence it keep putting runners out along the lawn and rats would hide in there. So I got sick of it got the real estate to fix the problem. So they sprayed it and that's it, it died quickly but its looking ugly as and bamboo leaves falling off. So I told my wife I'm gonna make a veggie garden. So I looked on gumtree for bricks, sleepers or something I could use. So I got around 200+ bricks from around the corner for free, I was quiet lucky as when I picked them upthey said they had a lot of people calling and enquiring about it. But I got them home in the back of my little astina hatchbac…

Hey all, I know this is hugely off topic? Wondering if there is any fellow Aussies here with any experience with Syrian Rue ? I was thinking it'd make for a fun addition to my garden, though getting seeds into WA seems impossible from what I've seen around the net? I guess WA has a few quirks haha! Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

Around this neck of the woods Kookaburra is top of the food chain. There a couple of raptors up in the " High Places " but they never seem to come down, No other foe is any match for that big old beak of Kookaburra, so around these parts he is very regal. I have never researched Kookaburra, no need to. Everything I learn from Kookaburra is relational and from observation. For the past seven years I have coincided my early morning walks with Kookaburra's call as he declares ownership of his families turf. I have counted at least six resounding colonies in my immediate earshot, a truly magnificent manifestation of Natures wonders. Very long calls. About five years ago I…

Seems that I see snakes where ever I go up here so Ive started this thread to help us all identify all the different type of snakes in Australia. If your planning on walking through the bush take your camera because your more than likely to come across a few yourself. Post them here! I came across two this morning both within meters of each other on the way to my patch. Anyone know what they are?

G'day all, been having abit of a fiddle with dwc and a grosse lisse, ( want to learn abit more before i go all out with my meds) transplanted one of my grossee lisse from soil to the DWC about 4 days ago now, some nice new root growth is starting to poke through, and i've been monitoring the temps with a wireless monitor I've noticed when i take my dwc bucket out in the sun, literally in about 10mins the whole plant will droop and not look happy, so i move her back under the pergola and same again in about 10mins, it's back to looking pretty ok?, the temp in the water does rise when it's in the sun but i try to combat that with a couple of 250ml pop top botles place…

Hey just thought I'd throw up a few pics, a bit of an assortment of plants. They are all in the BBQ area and the hops should grow up the speaker wire (from dick smith - about 25 bucks for 100m). There is a blueberry, mulberry, raspberry, orange tree, and 2 strawberry guavas. The plants in the small pots are acacia maidenii, the tall grass is phalaris aquatica. There are some dragonfruit cuttings also. There are pistachios there, not sure if the tops of the plants are in the photo. Notice the khat, brugmansia (formerly known as datura), and echinopsis cacti (san pedro, peruvian, bridgesii, etc) somewhere there. Cheers
