They're so weird and wonderful! Maybe I can persuade OH to grow some on the allotment :)<br />maryomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18265044617480788043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6136329803707061541.post-41335978129951328982017-09-22T15:36:58.685+01:002017-09-22T15:36:58.685+01:00I just love this post.

They have stopped doing it now but I remember buying some of the things you have pictured above. Such a lovely post, so full of colour and who doesn't love a bit of National Trust.

If Calke's too far, maybe there's a nearer National Trust property growing equally strange crops ... maryomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18265044617480788043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6136329803707061541.post-77582935569801869992017-09-21T11:54:55.698+01:002017-09-21T11:54:55.698+01:00This is truly fascinating - I want to go there.

I think the purple peppers are the most beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing with us at #TweensTeensBeyondSharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15167630322103481821noreply@blogger.com
