        Framberries

        I bought 3 plants and one of them produced 2 very small fruits. As for the rest...

                Ten tomato plants, grown from seeds or given as gifts. Fed, watered, hardened off, copper taped, more stakes than a Hammer horror film, etc. - and here is my tomato harvest for 2017. Look close: it's laughing at me!!!

                  I've come to the conclusion that Cucumbers are like little children, take your eyes off them for a moment and they will get their head caught in the fence.

                        This is a crime scene re-enactment because the actual culprit was condemned and executed before I thought of taking a photo.

                          Farmer's Long aubergine

                          Two moth-eaten aubergines the size of jalapeños is not a good return for nine months of love.
