Our May vegetable garden tour in Melbourne is here!
I take you on a tour of all the Winter seedlings we’ve planted ready for a Winter of delicious vegetable gardening in Melbourne, Australia and show you how everything looks in May.
After a strange summer and autumn, some of our summer vegetables are still producing (believe it or not!), but I’m slowly pulling them out to make way for vegetables that will survive the winter months here in Melbourne, Australia.
The things we have growing in our vegetable garden in Australia include Tuscan Kale, Purple Broccoli, Broccolini, Purple, orange and yellow cabbage, rainbow chard, lettuce, leek, coriander, basil, snow peas, sugar snap peas, spring onion, and lots more!

Thanks for the tour.. as a beginner gardener in Melbourne it's great to see local info 🙂
Hi Christie, myself
Ashok from India nowadays in Melbourne to visit my son.
Since the weather is totally different here than India, can you kindly guide me on what vegetables/seeds can be planted in this season?
Also please guide from where I can get seedlings for seasonal vegetables.
Thanks a lot
You produce a very good video. For a beginner, you are doing many things right. One thing I wished I had known is the importance of companions. With brassicas in particular, if you plant alliums, like chives, onions, garlic, and spring onions near, and some marigolds (would you believe!!) you can mask the colour and smell that attracts many bugs that eat your crops. More flowers around your veggies is super beneficial. You are going really well!! Clearly you are a very polished professional!! Journalist?!
Your basil will get hit by the frost and will not survive the winter so enjoy it now.
Sage is a big bush so you should plant them around your yard.
The Parsley will be fine they last 2 seasons so pull out when they flower.
The Cos lettuce is a tall skinny lettuce and is supposed to look like that.
You are doing very well for a beginner Vege gardener.
Thanks for sharing! I look forward to seeing how your brassicas develop over the next few months. I can’t believe how much room they need. I still have to transplant my seedlings into something 😅. I’m like you, in that I double up where I plant various vegies to find the best spot in the garden or pots in which they’ll thrive.
Such an inspiring garden! I had to go out and plant snow peas immediately! Thanks for the tour, and I look forward to lots more in the future!
Only plant fennel in pots.. it takes over and is so hard to dig out when it does 😁
Your garden is thriving. I would love to plant some garlic. You had your garlic steeping in some fertilizer. Could you please give me a bit more detail on that. What type of fertilizer and what ratio of fertilizer to water.
