Summer has faded.....

.....and my vegetable garden has a few wispy plants lingering on, the basil, how splendid it was and how many leaves were plucked from the 5 plants I had.  The tomatoes have wizened along with the beans and tomorrow it all goes on the vege tip.  Time for winter veges: silverbeet - all colours and types, leeks as cute as, and beetroot plants.  The rocket is still rocketing and have been picking for salads for the past couple of weeks.  The chives, oregano and parsley and mint are still growing well.  Off to Palmers in Bethlehem to finds some exotic veges to plant - maybe some baby carrots would be nice.  Let the sun shine for the weekend to slightly warm the soil.
