Opposite climate here in Florida, it's okra season now & not much else wants to grow except the basil and mint but in the fall, winter and spring we can grow a lot of different things. We did get a couple of watermelons to harvest too, that was nice. Apparently they don't mind the 35C temps everyday, but once the rains start in earnest it's just okra time.
Fennel isn't fussy, that might be good too for you.
Nice! I hadn't really thought of fennel.
Cucumbers and okra have been our two most successful things so far. Most of my herbs are doing OK as well, I suppose. We've hit 35 a couple times this year. The forecast has us mostly in the upper 20s and low 30s for the next few weeks. I just got second planting potatoes in, so we'll see how that goes. I planted a bunch of daikon radish, it came up nicely, then died a couple of days later. I'm not sure if it's the intense sun and heat or if I needed to get water to them again sooner. I've still got more seeds, so I might try planting them again later in the season.
