What to Grow in November (Temperate Climate Australia): a list of vegetables, fruit, herbs, edible flowers and my Garden Cocktail of the Month.
What to Grow in November (Temperate Climate Australia)
The last month of spring is upon us and with the BOM predicting the hottest summer in years as well as a wet summer, we, as in I and the garden, are enjoying whatever cool respite we can get. I can’t say the same for my second round of seedlings. Some have stalled at two leaves, others are shrinking before my eyes. It’s still too cold in the evening for the likes of jalapeños and shishito peppers. At least the cucamelons I sowed back in August are starting to gain height. Last week, they finally went in the ground. Here’s what to grow in November, for Sydney’s temperate climate.

Garden Cocktail of the Month: November – Purple Reign
November’s garden cocktail of the month features butterfly pea flowers and their colour changing abilities. It’s another cocktail from my first book, GROW YOUR OWN COCKTAIL GARDEN which is available for download. With Christmas approaching, it makes an ideal gift for anyone into gardening, cocktails or both.
Cheers to enjoying garden cocktails in November!
