STRAWBERRIES & TUMBLING TOMS

While it's a bit late in the year for the strawberries and tomatoes to start yielding fruit, I say 'better late than never'.   It just shows how a few days of warmth and sunshine can make all the difference.   Mind you, both the tomatoes and strawberries are protected in a small polytunnel.  I have picked more tomatoes this last week than I have had all season.  The perpetual flowering strawberry is yielding healthy fruit which is more than can be said for the other types I was growing.  'Was' being the operative word as I threw out every single strawberry plant I had except for the perpetual flowering type because I was sick and tired of seeing botrytis mould on them.  In my garden, plants have to knuckle down and get on with it, or get out!  Harsh treatment, I know.  :D
