The Adelaide & Mediterranean SA profile

Dry hot summers and mild wet winters. Autumn planting sets up the best of the year. GrowCal uses this curated regional profile rather than claiming that every garden in Adelaide has the same conditions.

Local frost pockets, shade, soil, aspect, container growing and variety can all change the sensible timing. Use these windows as a starting point and observe your own garden.
