@Kathy well if they grow by themselves then fine but I probably wouldn't bother to grow them again. Fun but not especially ornamental.

I wasn't expecting the flowers on this to be quite so tiny!

@echium the ripe fruits burst open when touched ejecting out the seeds.

Thought I would grow one of these for a bit of fun. Though as it's Spanish name 'Ojo Ciego' means 'blind eye' I perhaps need to be careful where I plant it.

I killed my baby cucumbers! Put them in the greenhouse and two days of hot sun later nothing in the pots!! Obviously too small for that intensity? Should have kept them in my flat aka the fridge longer maybe
