An indian summer in September that sounds good.

I have had a fantastic crop this year of Tarragon Lemon Balm, Tomatoes the size of Cannon balls. Beet-root s ball variety and (cucumbers Yellow exotic cucumbers. corsets purple variety & Chocolate Peppers. These are all unique varieties grown from seed s from the rare seed company who specialize in the conservation of both very old and rare seeds.

I have also grown a rare red sweet potatoes grown in bags made of woven black cloth resulting in a excellent yield.

The seeds are damn expensive at nearly £!0,00 a packet but the yield is fantastic and of course one can leave some to go to seed for another bumper crop of all the above next year.
