Most leaf vegetables will do well in part shade. It is the fruiting ones such as beans, tomatoes, zucchinis, corn, etc that need more sun

Position: Part or full sun, well drained soil

Going by your region, I would say possibly only in the summer months, depending on how much shade you mean. I live in a warm temperate region, and grow it in full sun, all year round.

I've been wondering the same thing. All I know is that I planted purchased seedlings of bok choy and pak choy at the same time (late April), and the bok choy is growing happily and the pak choy bolted to flowers. They are in similar positions as far as sun and shelter. I'm hoping someone may be able to explain.

They are not the same. Pak Choy is sweeter, has green soft stems. Bok Choy is slightly more bitter (but still sweet) and has white harder stems than Pak choy. They look very similar but if you know the difference, its quite obvious.

Is it viable to grow avocados in Melbourne. I heard that you need 2 different types of avocado tree and had to cross pollinate by hand. Is that right? Is anyone currently growing avocados in the home garden in Melbourne who can advise, please

I grow pak choy all year in my garden,as my garden gets sun all day,I also like to pick in when its small as it tastes much better.I allways feed it with worm wee diluted in the watering can about every two weeks...Plant,grow,eat and enjoy.......
