Opa and the mellow plants.

Strange goings on the in Opa's garden!

Your humble reporter was admiring the preparation of seeds for next year's runner bean mountain.........














And the amazingly tall tomato plants.....



















.. when he noticed something strangely familiar - a blast from the past as it were...














... and took a closer look...














By the cringe, these are getting quite high, as indeed shall we all at harvest time!



















For the reserved English in the family, this is all quite legal. It is the right, in Holland, for every citizen to grow five hash plants as 'botanical specimens'. This a project between Opa and Tineke. A joint venture one might say.
