We live in Bundaberg Qld. Should I be planting my seeds now?

Bundaberg is sub tropical climate zone, read up about climate zones in the blue tab at the top of the page. At the top of the page for Rosella you will see the months to plant, the big capital P. Just be careful with the current wet weather (14 inches for Feb so far) we are having. Maybe start them in some potting mix or a good draining soil combo. I live Coral Cove.
