Our Autumn Vegetable Planting in Western Australia 2022

Daniel Dohrman · March 13, 2022 ·

Autumn is once again here in Perth, Western Australia, and you will notice certain crops dying back and stop producing as the days get shorter and cooler. As these crops finish, we need to be prepared for the next succession of planting which is cool-season plants. Do not forget when replanting to add some fresh compost, manure, and some organic fertiliser to give the plants the extra nutrition they need. You also may need to have some temporary shade set up for the new seedlings as we can still get some very hot weather here in Perth in autumn.

Here is what we are sowing in Autumn

Beetroot, crimson globe and cylindra

Broccoli; waltham, romanesco and red arrow which is a purple sprouting variety

Broad Bean; aquadulce

Cabbage; verona purple savoy cabbage and michihili Chinese cabbage

Cauliflower; early jersi

Celeriac; giant prague

Carrots; all year-round

Egyptian Spinach

Garlic; rojo and purple strip

Kale; black toscana and red russian

Kohl Rabi; purple vienna

Leeks; carentan and elephant

Onions; gladalan white and hunter river brown

Mangel Wurzel

Parsnips; hollow crown

Pak Choi

Peas; greenfeast, blue bantam, sugar snap and melting mammoth

Potatoes; royal blue and nicola

Radishes; black Spanish round and champion

Silver beet; bright lights

Remember that a lot of these we are just sowing into seedling trays where you can largely protect them from the elements. Many of these plants if direct sown may bolt if they are not given the correct protection and water.
