Small but perfectly formed.

Looks like a ballet dancer.

I'm embarrassed to say that none of my seeds germinated and I can't enter the competition again. Its a couple of years since I've grown a Tromba-------I'm a failure,

Two of mine are really struggling, but one looks healthy. It's just not very big. I'll check up on it tomorrow

I've picked two with withered ends (poor tromba) they weren't amusing just sympathy inducing, I have high hopes of some funny ones soon, they like their climbing frame.

How’s everyone’s tromboncino doing ?

As ever I’m loving mine

^^^ you've set us all off now SC. Pics of mine later I hope.

Mine are pathetic... but then it's been dry even in the no dig beds. I think I didn't plant them deep enough. Two of them are looking positive though - they might do something in the next few weeks!

Tromba traipsing up the climbing frame, any 'fruits' are inside.

Inside view a couple of fully formed, but a load of them are unpollinated so wither at the ends.

Wow they’re looking fantastic JJB. Love them.

I very nearly forgot to photograph my tromboncino   . I’ve started eating one before I remembered.

Don’t know if you can read the tape measure. It’s very well used and going rusty ( the beauty of building in the rain     )
