Isle of Capri

Malcolm called in with an Isle of Capri tomato and a bucket of Italian flat beans.
That man knows how to grow 'em!

  1. It's worse if you're a guy.
    Malcolm's a master gardener though, so don't feel bad Jac.

  3. How does the Capri tomato taste?

    Italian flat beans are they what the English call runner beans?

  4. Renetsil - perhaps you are growing in a part of the country that hasn't enjoyed Southland-like conditions this year?
    I hear Auckland is wayyyy behind this year, due to cloudy conditions and rain, rain and more rain.

  5. Adam - the Capri is delicious - very few seeds and 'meaty', rather than 'wet'.
    The flat beans are different from runners, much heavier producers and nicer to eat by far.
