A few months ago, I noticed these weed looking plants growing amongst the roses in my garden, and I asked Andrew (my gardener) to take them out when he came to work one Saturday.  He took one look at them and told me they weren’t weeds they were baby tomato plants!!  Very weird that they grew there, but we’d had a blocked sewage pipe a few months previously and the sewage pipe runs under my rose bushes – that’s the only way the seeds could have got there.

We moved them to my herb garden, and they have flourished.  The fruit has just started ripening, and rosa tomatoes are Connor’s favourite treat so he runs to the patch often to see how many he can pick.  This evening there were quite a few.
