Wonderful news Robo, how lovely. Many congratulations. Hope mum and baby are both doing well.

All credit to you Elmigo. A huge amount of effort, and it all looks splendid. Now is the time to enjoy it all.

Westi, I've noticed the brix rating applied to tomatoes on some seed sites. (Sugar content).

Yep, it's been blowing a hoolie here all day

I've had 3 cobs of corn from my 3 plants grown in a pastic tub. One full size, the other two: somewhat dainty! Tomatoes are all cropping well (growbags & hanging baskets) and the cucumber in the greenhouse (pot grown) supplies a new one as the one I'm using comes to the end, how very civilised! ...

Hello Primrose, half my family live in Jersey. I believe you are correct about the seaweed. I also have a friend there who no longer thinks they taste the same as before. Such a shame, as they were my favourite too. They are usually only available earlier in the season, seems a bit late now?

lots of leaf fall here too Monika.

Happy Gardening Birthday Elmigo!

Happy birthday dear OH! Hope you had a splendid day.

that is quite magnificent!

we finally got some rain yesterday, a lovely thunderstorm. I stood out in it and got soaked. It was wonderful!

Happy Birthday Primrose. I hope it rains

another day of 35 all day yesterday (and today forecast), house is now unbearably hot at night, even with all the windows open. I keep them all closed and shaded during the day.

I do mine in an oven, I wouldn't be able to keep the bugs off outside!

It looks like a magnolia to me too
