My herbs did, but only because I hid them down the side of the house in the shade, next to the old bookshelves and massive spiderwebs.<BR/><BR/>Needless to say the heatwave was most foul, but I did love the Bureau of Meteorology's official forecast for Monday: "Melbourne, 31, sultry and unsettled".

I think it's because the nights are still so warm...clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17271464994614942315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609138731901019917.post-30117391575739789422009-01-31T22:22:00.000+11:002009-01-31T22:22:00.000+11:00I hope you and your herbs are doing ok Claire! :)I hope you and your herbs are doing ok Claire! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609138731901019917.post-84391212277299208372009-01-29T01:47:00.000+11:002009-01-29T01:47:00.000+11:00Geez it WAS hot!

My seedlings survive these extreme days much better under shade cloth. <BR/><BR/>It's going to be a crazy hot week.
