Thanks for Steve Hartley in the Lake District for this splendid picture of a tomato he grew which has a little knob!

Well done Steve! My tomatoes did nothing this year – a disaster for somebody trying to run a site like this one. Thank you for coming to my rescue! I particularly like the way the tumescent excresance has ripened before everything else.

“It was a bit unnerving when I skinned and ate it.” Steve says.

Blimey! I’ll say! As a woman, supposedly unaffected by these things, even I have to admit I’d be squeamish about peeling it… eeesh.

Anyway folks, here you go. Enjoy….

BTW. Nice hibiscus in the background there!
