Time for tomatoes

Despite complete neglect, the tomatoes seem to be doing well and on the whole are escaping the slugs and blight. I gathered 1.5kg today and made a great sauce from any bashed ones (including some figs in).

I also spotted a bumblebee on a bright pink zinia which are among the flowers that I am growing as cutting flowers. A particular success has been the statice also known as sea lavender (Limonium) which has grown particularly well in white and peach - the blue and hot pink were less plentiful.
