Well I never! We seem to have a second crop of strawberries ripening in the garden. just picked some and they are delicious. I know that the weather has been a little odd this year but its the first time i've had strawberries in October and amazingly they've survived the ground frost from earlier this week
My rose bush is blooming again too.
Anything odd happening in your garden?

I've got a second batch of strawberries. And my tomatoes have only just ripened, but only got a handful of them.
Oh, and one blueberry Hmm.
Been rubbish this year, have given up. Looking forward to better luck next year.

I lost almost all of my tomatoes to blight :(

Sad Been a very bad year for tomatoes. Mine are only small.
Oh, I also had one very small pepper that got blown off the plant in the recent winds. I had to hunt the garden for it as there was no way I was going to lose it. Anyway, I found it and used it in a pasta sauce and it was delicious. Grin
Mates DD had the blueberry but spat it out

I've had strawberries still flowering /fruiting. Still got loads of raspberries.and I'm oop north & didn't even get the Indian summer a few weeks ago

Didn't get much in the way of toms either this year

How funny at having to search for a blown away pepper giyadas!
Harrietjones - am jealous at your raspberries - my autumn ones gave up producing weeks ago.
