I reckon they must have asked Gove for money. Did you see that man who blocks his neighbours' view with hey bales. Someone was saying that these bales might walk as the harvest had been so poor! LOL!

Amistad cuttings responding very well. No roots, but they look good

A new dahlia Could be Ambition?

Trimmed off a lot of excess leaves from my toms and saw this funny shape. Quite cute. Anyone had experience with this. Don't even know the name.

My brilliant photography skill. All blurred. Nice cute shape!

they look like Roma tomatoes to me grew them few years ago really nice great for making tomato sauces

Yep! I think I could sell them if they are still alive. Bet it rains very often where you live, @Perki ! Have you been to the reservoir! I bet it should be half full after this latest storm. Bet you must be fed up with so much of it. I would cry as the gloomy weather will just drag me down.

Are they sweet at all, @Leeski ? I hope they are sweet. But I don't remember buying the seeds and they look so cute and sexy.

I have been to Wilko and found something must have been marked down as quite a lot of shelves were empty. But couldn't see the price. Saw a tomatoes feed originally priced at £4.99 reduced to half price, but of course all gone.

Went to B&M and bought 3 packets of FFB @£1 each. Couldn't really carry them and saw 50L Westland Grow Sure reduced to £1.99. Only about 3 or 4 left.

Nice balanced tomato Italians use them a lot for sauce - there really good as sundried toms lots of flavour or dehydrated Made into a powder sprinkled on risotto
