Nothing like having a book handy.....MM.

try them, if they grow you know that you can plant them next year - all it will cost is $2 for a punnet. I've given up trying to grow most things during the summer up here (Dicky Beach, Sunshine Coast) because when the food plants are growing so are the voracious food plant eaters.

Try, enjoy and love the fruits of your garden.

your safe bets will be the brassicas, potatoes, onions, garlic & beans. deopending on the micro climate of your yard and how much sun it gets will determine how well those plants will go. there will be no carte-blanche list as such all list are suggestions as is all help given here and like has been said try it see how it goes that is the best way to work out what will work for you in your micro-climate.

tomatoes and capsicums etc.,. will do well if you have a warm position with good sun they will of course take longer to mature over the shorter winter days that are coming. zucchini's pumpkins etc,.? if you have a well drained spot that gets almost maximum sun they could do ok but will take a long time to mature, the down side here is powdery mildew will be the big enemy.

at present with night time temp's falling i would suggest buying seedlings as seeds may not germinate that well in the cooler medium.
