Agree that unlike normal garden plants, container plants all require regular nutrient supplements to compensate for all the nutrients that wash out whenever you water. Unfortunately it isn't as easy to time those applications to the growth cycle of the plants as it is when planted in ground. Normally with tomatoes I only feed after each cycle of fruit set but when it is in a container it isn't possible to wait that long between feedings or the plant suffers. Frequency of application also depends on which type fertilizer you are using. You might check with the folks over on the Container gardening forum for tips on how they do it. Dave

Aerilia123 - reading you answer, I'm not sure if you realised that Fabaceae is the name of a whole family of plants, not one specific type of plant. I believe the family has over 1000 members in Australia. If you follow susanc's link you will see the particular species within that family that she thinks your first plant is. Sorry, if you knew all that. It wasn't clear to me from your reply.

They grow on the island but never seen them further north. Let us know if you find out what it is. Tally HO!

NM. A friend just IDed them for me as Ipheions.
