They look lovely. But it's sad that the veg are coming to an end

Just moving into a new season @charlotte you can sow winter cabbage kale and cauliflower now.. and buy sprout plants..

My garden isn't big enough to grow anything like that.

Yes they do take up space.. Maybe some winter salad in your greenhouse @charlotte.. I use mine to overwinter tender flowers but you could give that a go...

I've still a fair few green ones and they've started to flower again! Wonder if I should just pick them at this point, pop them into a paper bag and put them in a drawer with a banana to ripen them? Will give me room for the seeds I need to sow🤔 @carolecuttingitfine

I was going to do that @jpea and nearly ripe ones on the windowsill! Think they have just about run out of steam, it's a bit early but so is Autumn 🍂
