Your advice and tips are great, but I have to reverse seasonal planting completely in line with southern hemisphere planting. However, want to ask, whether others have also found that the changing climate conditions, often delay the onset of seasons? For instance, I have had to move small trees and shrubs with edible leaves indoors in the winter and over the last few years, have to do it earlier every year, as night time temps have dropped much lower now -- winters extend too. For instance the young mango and the curry leaf tree, as well as dipladenia and a few others shrubs, could only return to the summer garden mid November and even now, spring temps remain low at night. I suppose the only solution would be to build a small greenhouse. So all round, for northerners and southerners -- it would be great if you could provide tips for erecting a greenhouse on the cheap in a small garden! Thank you -- your site is a delight!
