Squash – Turks Turban

Lumpy, bumpy and decidedly funky. Like a spaceship wrapped multicoloured silk, Turks Turban is the Salvador Dali of the cucurbit world.

Is there any other reason to have a conservatory part 2. I tried leaving my citrus outside this winter as recently they have been mild enough but this year we had some prolonged minus 6c which killed off my smallest tree and knocked back a large lemon and lime. Therefore I’ve decided they will stay in the conservatory over winter going forward and I have added 7 more to the collection. #mayerlemon #tahitilime #keylime #bloodorange #kaffirlime #buddahshand and #yuzu. I will let you know how they get on..I bought most from @plants4presents.

The difference between an overwintered and a chilli sown this year. The first three photos are last years sowings and the last photo sown on Jan 1st this year. Last years sowings are close to fruiting on some plants. This year I have over wintered biquino, Trinidad perfume, habanero, lemon drop and a rather dubious about the whole idea jalapeños. I have lost one plant which was a wild chilli so may try and sow that again although I could not get it to fruit this year.

Monty don was sowing his tomatoes last night on gardeners world. Have to admit that mine usually get down at the beginning of March. This is cream sausage a cream paste tomato, developed by the master of tomatoes Tom Wagner which is fun to grow and gives a different colour to your tomato sauces! Full review in bio link.

Do you love them or loath them? I love! This is the sprout Attwood which is still standing happily on my plot to feed you through the winter. Full review in bio link.

Wild garlic from the lottie. It’s not growing on my plot thank goodness as it is a bit invasive but in a scrubby woodland area. First of the new seasons harvest though 😀
