Seed swap anyone?

Recommended Posts

Hi there East Dulwich Forum


I'm growing tomatoes this year and wondered if anyone is up for a seed swap once they've cropped? It's easy to do - just save the seeds from one of the tomatoes you've grown this year, making a note of which variety it is, let them dry out and around mid-late September we do a swap. I'm growing Tigerella - beautiful stripey toms. Saves on seed buying.


Also I'd like to swap a couple of dahlia tubers, again, in the autumn when they've finished flowering. Mine are all deep burgundy, waterlily type (it's a shape thing), prolific flowerers, and I'd like to swap a few for other colours of any type, pref not white.


Something small to look forward to in our weird new normal. At least you know where you are more or less with flowers and vegetables! Photos of both attached. Look forward to hearing from anybody interested.

    • Another bite for JAGS ( James Allen Girls school) classes are excellent too. There is also Dulwich boys but less light and airy )might be better nor as haven’t been for a while) 
    • Photos. Every single piece of litter in that photo (if you enlarge it you can see lots more pieces) was dropped by the bin men in the background. I don't blame them - it would destroy their backs to pick it all up. Perhaps they should try to not drop so much litter in the first place...  These photos were taken on the 1st March - a Saturday. The street cleaner, who does an excellent job around Underhill Road and Melford Road, bags up the rubbish and leaves them on a Thursday generally. They are supposed to be collected the same day or the next day at the latest. They weren't collected. The first photo was November. It was a very large number of poo bags. I reported it to Southwark but they took 3 days to collect it. In the meantime the bags were squashed and the faeces was spread everywhere, photo 2. It would mean that everyone who walked along that bit of road will have spread it a bit further, along with the vehicles, so that it went into a lot of people's houses.  Over to you Sue. In this photo you can see the litter that was dropped by the bin men (I feel bad as they are really nice and work really hard often going into people's properties to get the bins that weren't put out - usually at a semi-jog speed; it must be exhausting and its not their fault that Southwark doesn't give them enough time to do their job properly. Maybe they should sack their team of EDF astro-turfers to save some money?), the split blue bag with some birds sorting the contents on the pavement, and the refuse truck in the background. I don't blame the workers, I blame Southwark. I am also annoyed at you, Sue, for saying this is an exaggeration and is basically a lie; something you do all over the forum (along with the cycling trolls). I have a lot more pictures too.
