Heirloom Tomato Plants and Other Vegetables
Hoping the weather will be kind for the markets this weekend. More varieties of tomatoes available but some types, especially the 'black' tomatoes, selling out fast. A good selection of cherry toms, and bush types suitable for pots and veggie pods.
Snow peas, both green (the original 'mange tout')and purple podded.
Clearance on dwarf and climbing beans (slightly windswept!). Next planting of beans will not be available for two or three weeks. Some zucchini and pumpkin still available this week and then not again until later in the month.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
