Markfield Rover, I'm wondering how you got on growing the Peruvianum tomato. I hadn't fully appreciated how unusual it is. It seems that it's a different species from our usual domesticated tomato and has larger yellow flowers. I think it's relatively unchanged from the wild rather than having been highly selected. I imagine it's quite variable. Did yours turn out at all like this photo?

Well, better in the ground even now, than rotting away which is what they will do if not planted. We have  planted them as late as this without any major problems.

Is it too late to plant them?  I love in greater London.
Any advice?  The weather looks good for next weekend.
