Abstract

This article presents techniques used for garden design. The day cannot be too far off when garden planning and design, too, can be done on computer, but so far there's no good, easy program that does this. The ones that do exist have been created for professional use and don't chime easily with domestic requirements. Seed collection is very much in fashion, and to do it seriously one needs to be well organised. When seed is sorted and sifted, it's best kept in smallish quantities in manila seed packets. Brenner Kelly is part of a new breed of young Melbourne garden designers trained at the University of Melbourne's Burnley College of Horticulture, and offers advice for planting eruca sativa or rocket. Common rocket is a Mediterranean salad herb that is also known as arugula, roquette or rucola. Wild rocket has smaller leaves and a stronger flavour than common rocket. The leaves do not keep well and are not suitable for freezing.
