Mindboggling!!!<br /><br />Ran out of space for the usual Pink Fir Apple this year, so no knobbly tatties this year. <br /><br />Your tomatoes will ripen with time, and the banana treatment may assist too.

With these you cut all the canes that have fruited down to the ground and tie in the ones produced this year. My guess is that if it is fruiting now and hasn't produced fruits earlier that it is autumn fruitingSue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3995579066328855450.post-33917318818040051612013-09-25T17:19:46.011+01:002013-09-25T17:19:46.011+01:00The general view seemed to be that it was an "...The general view seemed to be that it was an "inside job". <br /><br />I've no idea what kind of rasps they are as we inherited them. They weren't great last year and I was planning to uproot them, but a sterling performance this year may have earned them a stay of execution.
