Maskotka grown from seed in hanging baskets

Black Sea Man, Hillbilly, German Orange Strawberry and Tigerella all grown from seed in the greenhouse, plus Lettuce Leaf bush toms huddled in the greenhouse for now and also from seed.

Plus me 'speriment - grafted double stemmed cherry tom bought from work to see if the grafted veg is worth the extra spondoolics.  Will get back to you on that one, but looking promising so far  ;)

Not a tomato but a grafted aubergine plant just so I can show off to MoS and Sunny  :nowink:  Now that's setting myself up for a fall  :lol:

Re Devon's post (the quote system doesn't seem to be working properly, it might be me), yes they are all varieties that can be grown outside.  I have sourced them from the Heritage Seed Library, Simpson's Seeds, Real Seeds and in the case of Golden Sunrise and Super Marmande a swap with a colleague at work.

Wow, there are certainly some diverse varieties there!

I am lucky DBG, my 6x6 greenhouse was my OH's Mum's, the 10x8 greenhouse we got off Ebay for £98, and the 24x21 polytunnel was £60 from a little nursery my friend worked at which had to close down.

The little greenhouse has 9 aubergines in it, some potted stuff and a Tigerella tomato.  The big greenhouse has 30 different chilli and pepper plants plus 5 gartenpearle's in hanging baskets, and because OH is still using a quarter of my polytunnel for wood storage, I've got 54 tomato plants in there, the others are in pots and old compost bags in other parts of the garden.

Grow some outdoors ones then  :D

I grow outdoor ones and think they do very well on the whole. They do need supporting well though
