Jackie French: Stay warm while gardening in the Australian winter | The Canberra Times

Winter has its own beauty where you can see a well -placed window. However, cold air has its own scents, ice perfume like tin, the fresh smell of dead leaves that need to smell decay, but Daphne and ‘Birthday Wink’ Banksia and fragrant camellia and hyacinth varieties, Rosemary, Lavender shrubs. Hungry yellow Robins hopes you to create a dart, a worm about you. There is a freshness that is not found in the summer months about winter air. The odors are more defined and cold soil … smells like cold soil. There is no such odor. Nor is onion, garlic, cabbage and large beans are still growing minus two degrees.
