Squashed


Rowan is growing a snake gourd from seed. The idea is you paint the twisty gourd to look like a snake. I had assumed that we were in for a feeble little plant that just about managed to produce one gourdette. Well, the tropical weather [still no sign of the guaranteed [thankyou BBC weather] rainstorm today] has made the gourd plant go absolutely mad at the front of the house. The triffidesque thing drinks about 10 litres a day, and will probably be doing this blog by the end of the week
