Tomatoes are smarter than cucumbers

Four days after posting this complaint about the progress of the tomato and cucumber plants, Miss Costoluto Genevese ripened up! She must have been secretly surfing this blog!

Lets hope she'll teach mister cucumbers soon how to get onto my wireless internet too;)

In Wellington botanical garden (NZ), bay leaves grow into bushes at the herbs garden:)
