[New shoot]

I seem to have created a forest garden in my greenhouse  :blink:  Not sure I meant to but apart from having to limbo in, which does add to the jungle atmosphere, it is getting exciting in there

Well done New Shoot - I have to say that's a very impressive jungle you have there..........



............although on a personal level vaguely depressing..............


..........but mainly impressive! 

[Yorkie]

Lovely


(*envy*)

I wouldn't mind looking for Tarzan in there

I'm so jealous of those aubergines 

I thought I was doing really well because my aubergine plants finally look big and bushy with things hanging off them that are just big enough to recognise as fruit.

Always knew you were a cougar MOS.

Spluttered my latte there   

Who knows what lurks in the depths of the jungle. but think I would have noticed a man in a loincloth    On second thoughts ............ maybe not   

My first aubergine success is totally down to using a grafted plant.  Not so impressed with the tomato - as I suspected, they are fairly bland supermarket types, but the aubergine is a star.  We have one at work planted up as well and have harvested a few fruits already with loads more to come

Now there definitely isn't an orangutan in there - the orange would show up against the sea of green

   I can't believe the size o them aubs  Blimey 

Mine is a jungle too and I have to contort myself every which way to get water at the base of the many plants. I have made bottle funnels to make life easier but reaching them is a balancing act    I have two doors to the greenhouse so I can get in from either side but the middle is a bit of a no-go area 

Quite why I grow so many tomatoes .....

Cos they taste good - when they finally ripen. Nearly as good as home grown cukes.

The camera never lies - well at least not on this occasion 

When I visited New Shoot, I had to edge my way carefully into the greenhouse --- and that was a couple of weeks ago 

That Black Sea Man tomato is a lovely colour -- some of mine are just changing from green now 

(and I'm not mentioning aubergines on the grounds that it is too upsetting for me to disucss this subject  )

Bit like my courgettes - least said.

If thats the benefit of grafted plants, I just might invest next year!
Brilliant greenhouse.

Mine too is very overcrowded - you just can't help filling every valuable space and while the plants are small it's cool - then they grow and grow and suddenly there's no room for the gardener!

Thinking of getting a smal polytunnel so I don't overcrowd too much next year!
