          The doorway is a standard door size just for scale.
          I thought this was from an Aubergine seed.
          Seems I might have 'thinned out' the Aubergine & left a seedling from my home grown compost
          Thought I'd let it go and see what it became & it became excessive
          'A Triffid'
          Daren't eat it cos I don't know what it is

                Our England is a garden, and such gardens are not made
                By singing-'Oh how beautiful!" and sitting in the shade,
                While better men than we go out and start their working lives
                At grubbing weeds from gravel paths with broken dinner-knives. ~ Rudyard Kipling

                    Mutant sweetcorn

                    Not only has this cob (and all of the others) not been pollinated, it seems to have tried to rectify the problem itself, by growing a flower head out of the top If you look closely, you can see the tufts of flowers growing through next to the unpollinated kernels. Never seen anything like it
