A gentle autumn and a last hurrah, thank you #puddingmillallotments
Pumpkins, chocho or chayote, if you prefer, shishito chillies, fig leaf gourd, second crop figs, just a few, romanesco cauliflower, marvellous green daikon, achocha and potatoes.
A Yugoslavian Finger Fruit. This one got away from me, beautiful and tender when young, now rock hard and a keeper. It will join the showy Speckled Swan Gourds on my window sills this winter.
#puddingmillallotments you are magic.
Everything is ripening so fast and all at once. August generosity has morphed into a cavalcade of picking, gorging and gluttony.
#puddingmillallotments you are magic.

All these flowers keep arriving for free, as if on the wind. I’ve moved and weeded plenty out, but many remain. I like how they soften the edges of my plot, and provide food, and habitat for the other inhabitants of the allotment. #mullein #hollyhocks #foxglove #fleabane #puddingmillallotments
