Stuck in the garden? We can help

Every gardener faces challenges as they work through the changing seasons. Why is my lemon tree not fruiting? What’s that bug eating my tomatoes!? What can I plant that will actually thrive in that shady spot? Whether you’re dealing with pests, puzzled by poor soil, wondering what to plant next, or trying to make the most of a small space, our experts are here to help.

We believe gardening is something we learn by doing, and there’s no such thing as a silly question. Every challenge is an opportunity to grow your knowledge and confidence in the garden.

Our team of horticultural experts will do their best to answer your questions with practical, organic and seasonal advice tailored to real garden conditions. From backyard vegie patches and balconies to larger food gardens and mixed plantings, we’re here to help you find solutions that work.

Some of the experts who share their knowledge with our readers are Phil Dudman, Connie Cao, Jessamy Miller, Cass Hooke and Natasha Morgan.

If you are feeling a bit stuck, or simply want to know a better way to do something, we’d love to hear from you. Your question might even help other gardeners facing the same issue, and could be featured in an upcoming issue of our magazine.

So don’t keep it to yourself. Ask away, and let’s grow better gardens together with healthy harvests that we can share with family and friends.
