Collecting seeds

Like many gardeners at this time of year we collect seeds from a variety of plants, usually from flowers but we have collected Tomato Seeds and last year, Radish.

This year given the cost of Cucumber seeds we left one growing in order to collect its seeds.

They were an English Cucumber and if we could have found the seed packet we would have given you the variety. We do know that the seeds were about £2.50 for 6/8 seeds. Hopefully once dried out these will be planted next spring.

What the results will be is anybody's guess given that our Radish seed harvest produced some strange radish!

For those of a certain age... Esther Rantzen would be proud of that one!
