Picked all the green ones from our gro-bag (tm) a few days ago. Went to
look at the plants with a view to dumping them yesterday and one of them has decided to have another go! Beautiful new flowers |

Beautiful new flowers One of our Tumblers in a basket is flowering but the main plants have had the chop. Ray says that even if they fruit, they won't ripen but you have a much better chance in Jersey! -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon www.helpforheroes.org.uk |

Beautiful new flowers Speaking to one of our allotment holders in Sainsburys this morning, she said that some weeks ago she cut their tomatoes at home down to almost ground level but left the pot where they were on her patio. One of them is now back to a foot tall and flowering profusely. -- Regards. Bob Hobden. Posted to this Newsgroup from the W of London, UK |

Beautiful new flowers In past years my outdoor tomatoes have produced and (slowly) ripened fruit until the first frost. Some years this could be as late as December. However this year the outdoor plants have been wiped out by blight. So if you are in an area with late frosts, you might give it another chance :-) Cheers Dave R |

However this year the outdoor plants have been wiped out by blight. So if you are in an area with late frosts, you might give it another chance :-) Noticed a great deal of weed seedlings coming up in a large patch on the allotment, went and took a look and it's thousands of tomato plants. Where we had the 6 Losetto plants, and couldn't pick the fruit underneath as the bushes are so low, the seeds have germinated profusely. Now, is it worth potting up some? -- Regards. Bob Hobden.
