The tomatoes look good, Chookie.

I love seeing and hearing about what everyone has got growing in their gardens.

I recently prepared a herb bed, so far only one chilli plant in it, but it looks very healthy. Trying to decide what else to put in it. I use the term "pot" very loosley, it is actually one of those old concrete (or stone) twin trough washing tubs that used to be in every wash house until washing machines arrived on the scene.

A nice selection of tomatoes Chookie. Our tomatoes are just about finished now.

A perfect 'pot' Marina. It has a drainage hole and will be cooler being concrete.

I’m very excited. My Dragon fruit has grown a branch and there are more coming. We also have another pineapple growing.

Cookie, how exciting.

Very exciting. Is that a baby pineapple developing near the base of the pineapple? The dragonfruit plant does not look at all like I had envisaged a dragonfruit plant to look like. I wonder how long it will be before it bares fruit.

Interesting photos cookie, are you guaranteed to get fruit from the dragonfruit plant and how long will it take?

I don't know if the Dragon fruit will have fruit. I hope it does.
The thing that looks like another pineapple is a new plant. Each plant only has one fruit and then it shoots out another plant and you chop the bit off that fruits.(after the fruit has ripened)

Great to see the Dragon Fruit and Pineapple plants Cookie.

We are about to decide what we might plant for Autumn.

I'm off to the nursery tomorrow morning for that very same thing, Chookie.

Marina, let us know what you decide.
