FREE! 2024 Brisbane Planting Calendar

I’ve come up with my own yearly standard for what veggies to plant in Brisbane throughout the year

Hi everyone,

I’ve created a very simple Brisbane planting calendar for anyone who wants to know what to plant now in Brisbane and South East Queensland.

I plant the bulk of my vegetables and flowers at the start of Autumn and the start of Spring, because they are the milder times of year. I like to avoid the extreme cold and extreme heat where I can and it works well for me. I plant from seed of course — Salisbury Grange is an (organic, heirloom) seed company! I’ve included what to plant now in Brisbane, and across the rest of the seasons, below.

Happy growing!

Phoebe

Some of the leafy greens and tomatoes (above) I grew last year, that I’ll be repeating again next year
