Allotments 4 All

Things are starting to kick off here.  Here are a few things I'm growing this year in pots.  G x



Strawberries from a swap with Si.



Physallis recommended by Jennym



Micro tomatoes from a swap with Biscombe



My own saved chilli seed variety unknown



My own chives with parsley and garlic in the background.

Everything looks so healthy - very impressive :)

looking good, georgie,
had a wierd thing there, no piccies apart from the chillies, then went off and back on and everything came on
hope it's not the comp on the fritz again  ;D

Looking great Georgie.

You managed it Georgie  ;D

Everything's looking great. My poor chives look very dishevelled, in fact they look like a long sod of grass, still taste nice though  ;D

What are Micro Tomatoes? Are they extra small as the name would suggest?

Are you leaving everying outside or do you have a greenhouse?

Jo.

Thanks everyone.  :)

You can get Micro Toms from Plants Of Distinction (or you can wait until next year and ask me to send you some :)).  They only grow about 8" tall and I have no idea what they taste like - yet!

The toms, chillies and physallis currently live on the windowsill, the strawbs are in the mini greenhouse and the rest are outside.

Looking great (again  ;) ) can't wait til we have something that looks as healthy as your lot do  8)

Wow everything looks so strong and healthy, and by the looks of things, you will be eating toms long before me!!

Looking lovely! Your physalis and toms are very well advanced, must be that lovely new mini greenhouse doing it's job? :)

Georgie - I was just about to suggest a later thread showing dates of sowing, harvesting etc. Keep note of your toms' first set as it may top the bill!!

Lovely healthy specimens  :)

mind if i snip some of your chives for my egg mayo sarnie ;)

Tim.  I have never known tomatoes and physallis to flower so early.  Both were sown in the second half of February and the first tomato trusses were maybe two weeks ago and the first fruit spotted last weekend.  It has yet to pass the taste test.  The Physallis flowered last weekend and the Chillies had the first sign off flowers then too.

LOL GW, go right ahead.  :)

Georgie that all looks gorgeous. I like the pics of purty flowers in here, but it's the veg pics that really float my boat. So exciting!
