I've grown Brussels for nine years and only had one decent harvest, but perhaps this will be the year? At least the tops never 'blow'! 

Florence fennel is always sad - we might get enough small heads for one risotto, but we also get swallowtail butterfly caterpillars on them, so they are worth the work & the culinary disappointment.

After buying or being given three rhubarb plants I have to accept my baking clay is never going to be their liking. But if somebody gave me a plant I'd try again!!
 
Is there anything you stubbornly refuse to give up on?

What worked for you this year and what didn't.   What are you definitely growing again after trying it, and what was a dead loss.  I know the season isn't over, so this thread might continue long into the year.

I interplanted iceberg lettuce around the edge of my sweetcorn block, and they seemed to really enjoy the semi shade.  I shall be doing that again.  Calendula succumbed to powdery mildew so perhaps not bother next year.  Dianthus from seed are  good and give a long display.  Raspberries this year were down on poundage but up on flavour.  I like the taste of yellow CFB Marvel of venice, a new one to me this year and will be growing again.   Although Coco blanc a rames is only ok as green beans, they say you can dry them, but I don't use dried beans much, so won't bother next year.  There will no doubt be more to report as the season progresses.

10 yards from my door is a little green with the tub/floral arrangement and a picture of Tub Row
   
   

 Does anyone have any tips on persuading our resident mole to go live somewhere else?!! Parts of the garden are sinking into his mole tunnels!!

Just seen this article about gardeners receiving unknown seeds in the post.

However tempting it is, don't plant them!

Any ideas on this one folks?

The tree is about 30 - 40 foot high, the fruit / berries are soft to touch...

   
   
   

    This arrived yesterday but needs identification and a name. Suggestions please

Gardening is very visual for me - my phone always runs out of data as I take so many photos. So this thread is to post your tomato pics. I haven't grown many interesting ones this year but I'm hoping I will get some new seed for Christmas....I'm already planning next years!

These seems to be the new hip term being floated about.

I personally have practised this type of gardening for years but they have eventually came up with a name for it. It basically means, forget about crop rotation, forget all you have read in books, do what you think is right and will work,mix flowers fruit and vegetables, create havens for wildlife to name but a few ideas.

Just basic common sense really

Almost all garden gnomes have red hats. 
It's just a little gnome fact.
