Spent the day with my friend in south London. We went to the county fair in Morden - a very suburban county fair (not like the Royal Cornwall of my childhood!) but nice in the sunshine and the demonstration with suffolk punches (horses) was interesting. From over 300,000 before the first world war their numbers plummeted over the decades, but recently have built up to over 500. They are as rare as pandas!
To the garden centre on the way back and I got some marigolds for the conservatory to ward off white fly.
I also got a pot of bidens. This is a yellow trailing plant. Some years ago I got a pink metal watering can which had a slight leak. I've just got round to drilling some holes in it to use as a pot and wanted something trailing. I wasn't able to find a trailing tomato.
