In the garden: Plant some onions, spinach and peas

Take advantage of the recent showers and winter sunshine and get a few veggies growing in your patch.

Of all garden shrubs, the camellia’s foliage must be one of the most attractive – beautiful by day, and even on a moonlit night.

Whether you have a large garden or just a couple of pots, herbs are easy to grow, with a long list of benefits and uses.

Each Saturday morning, a group of inner-city gardeners tends to an ecosystem that is cultivating more than just fruit and veggies.

When many other plants are lying dormant in the cooler months, native shrubs can provide a welcome burst of colour for the garden.

Mustard greens add a pungent, mustardy taste to salads that complements other cooler flavours, and they are an extremely quick and easy crop to grow.
