We have two 2+ metre canes that will fruit this year (plus some smaller ones) and so we were trying to work out how to best set them up
.
We have the canes growing vertically at the front of the pot and then we twirl and arch them onto the backboard lattice. That way it makes the job of picking berries easier 😍

*** POSSUM ALERT ***
.
Every winter hungry possums visit us @thegeogarden in search of food. They like to give our citrus trees a haircut at the canopy but thankfully do not touch the fruit. Although they generally do not eat citrus fruits, a desperately hungry possum will take a bite or two for survival
.
Unfortunately in a number of areas around Melbourne, councils have removed a lot of the native vegetative shrubs and evergreen trees such as Eucalypts that formed part of the possum's staple diet for such a long time and replaced them with deciduous trees like oaks, maples, planes and ornamental pear trees for a more decorative street appeal
.
The problem however is that come winter time, these trees have no leaves on them and so the possums move into home backyards in search of green foliage ✅

Our vegetable garden can look a bit tired during winter time, but we enjoy looking at some of our evergreen tropical plants 😍
.
Tropical plants like palms and ferns love high nitrogen intake and are typically fed with UREA based solutions to create that deep rich lush green look
.
DID YOU KNOW?
.
UREA in humans is the metabolic waste from urine containing the nitrogen compounds produced by the body
.
If you do not wish to purchase UREA fertiliser, human urine is the best form of natural UREA fertiliser for lush green non-edible plants (we don't but it is a common practice by a lot of gardeners)
.
Using human urine as a fertiliser in plants has been used for thousands of years as a reliable, potent, cost effective and readily available nitrogen rich fertiliser. Often it's passed down as a great gardening tip from one generation of gardeners to another ✅
