Improvisation


If it weren’t so hot, I’d try to fashion more proper stakes for these floppy tomato branches. But it is too hot, so I grabbed these old plant stands from the shack instead. Now their addition is kinda growing on me as the tomatoes are on them.

The plant stands look excellent with tomato plants, Iris - there's a suggestion of those magazine garden photo shoots where tables appear unexpectedly, making everything look festive.

Thanks so much, Annie!! Who knew my basic laziness would end up potentially "fashionable"? I am more inspired now!

Dear Iris, your site is totally brilliant. Please think about entering your gorgeous tomatoes at our virtual village show - http://emsworthvillageshow.blogspot.com/
there are meant to be six, but even if there is only one, we are v good at bending the rules...

Emma,

Thank you! I'm so happy you enjoy my blog! I just pulled up your sites and look forward to catching up.

I'll definitely enter your virtual village show and I think I can manage six tomatoes--thanks for the invitation.
