Sharing the lurve with the VSP :)

I'd sample some frankfurters too

If I'm going to have German sausage, I'd rather a big juicy bratwurst

My neighbours love Yellow Pear, and it grows well here and looks lovely, but I find it too mild for my tastes. Does the Beams version have more flavour?

I've never tried Beams but I find all the yellow toms to be mild...often a favorite with the kids. I grow yellow pear every year.

Zelenina, sorry but I can't offer any advice on seed shops in Frankfurt - I'm up North. Nor on the sausage question - veggietarian....

I'm sorry but I've no idea what you're getting at. That was a perfectly innocent remark about German food. Size does make a difference when it comes to sausages. After you've tried a bratwurst, a pork chipolata just isn't adequate any more.

Ah I've just seen this VC!
Mine didn't work this year at all! Well, the ones I planted didn't, the ones that fell in between the courgettes by accident did! And they only had one head, not multi headed like their Mum!

These sunflowers smile at me every time I pass by. Thank you Ancee for brightening up my day

Just found some ole piccies up and thought I would share them to tempt you to grow them yourselves.

Alpine dianthus



French Climbing Bean - District Nurse. I don't think the HSL description does this one justice

It's time for a Victor Meldrew moment!

These Facing Heaven seeds came to nothing last year. NOTHING! I put the rest in my propagator a couple of weeks ago and look: I have 2 nearly facing heaven chilli babies...



If they keep on going, fresh facing heaven chillies will be back in the VSP.

Excellent news, Sparrow, because they were the last ones in the VSP. Their future lies in your hands

[Hazel at the Hill]

No pressure there, then, Sparrow!

I checked the packet again and they had 'TLC' written on them. Not sure if that's a username or a growing recommendation!

Maybe TLO? The large one - he is a chilli fan though hadn't been on the vine for a while

Yes, it was The Large One. Lots of Chilli seeds from TLO and many of them will be going out for viability testing as they've been around for a few years.
Hope everyone succeeds with them.

Looky looky, it's a teeny tiny Lipstick pepper!



Except again, I sowed them all and binned the envelope. D'oh. Thank you whoever sent them in.
