    It`s perfect Blackthorn. [​IMG]
    What kind is it? Where has it been growing? Conservatory, gh?? Some people at allotments must have set theirs away early.They sell them for 30p each and every time i look into next doors gh i panic as they are huge.I`ve only just potted 4 of my GD on today into 5in. pots.
    Did you eat it right after you took the pic? [​IMG]

    Thanks elainefiz. It is Gardeners Delight, it's on the windowsill in the dining room and yes, we ate it straight away and it was yummy :D
    The ones in the greenhouse sown in Feb are just beginning to flower and I'm sure yours won't be far behind.

    That's just great Blackthorn! You given me an idea to try this autumn - thanks!
    Did you stop the plant or just let it grow on as it wanted?

    Thanks Dave W. I stopped it after the third truss as it had reached the top of the window. [​IMG]

    That's strange azadaman, is this for all the pics on the site or just this one? If it is for all of them, you may have to adjust your browser settings to allow pictures to download. Someone in the computer section may help you with this.
    If it is just mine then I'm stumped as to why, it seems everyone else can see it. :confused:
