Flame, Sun & Fireworks




Flaming Tomatoes

These are a variety of Beefsteak Tomatoes and display a pattern akin to racing cars with flames pumping out the top. They're huge, heavy, plentiful, plus they are delicious! With a full, meaty flesh and flavour, I think I've found a fave.



Surreal Sunflowers

This one stalk has produced about 6 sunflowers now, and shows no sign of stopping. Glad the bunnies (grrr!!!) didn't eat this one.



Floral Leeks

A couple of leeks were left in the garden from last year and bolted, causing these beautiful sprays of bloom, like ethereal balls of fairy fireworks. Here's hoping they'll last a long time for the pleasure of their company.
