    I sent my Cactii friends down to the greenhouse for a refreshing summer holiday. Imagine my surprise this morning when I saw this beautiful flower on a cactus that was given to my son over 10 years ago - absolutely stunning!

    The money plant that I bought from the Chinese takeaway many years ago is flourishing alongside the Christmas cactii

    Did you grow the pineapple from the top [cut off a supermarket pineapple]? or something else?

    Its on my mind to grow pineapples next year instead of "far too many tomatoes" as my DW describes it!

    My son bought the pineapple from Homebase but when he read the tag it said the plant could be poisonous. He has 2 cats that he adores and decided to give it to us rather than take it home. I can't imagine it will grow into a pineapple that can be eaten - but who knows ???

    Hey- I don't think you can ever have too many tomatoes. I adore them and my OH has to grow loads for me. We have quite a few different varieties this year, I'll post some pics another day.
