  7. Count me in for the giveaway please, what a great prize.

    My Favourite Vegetable - Parsnip. A Sunday dinner isn't a Sunday dinner without a parsnip on the plate.

    My Favourite Fruit - Strawberry. I'm definitely getting some everbearers for next year, the strawberry season is just too short without them.

    My Favourite Herb - Chives. So easy to grow and adds that something extra to a cheese sandwich as well as providing pretty flowers which the bees love.

    My Favourite Flower - Fuchsia. I like the very understated varieties such as Hawkshead best.

    My Favourite Gardening Tool - Secateurs. I was lucky enough to find a pair of Felcos in the Wilkinson's sale for £10 and I love them. I think I use them every time I visit the allotment for one job or another.

    Good luck in the giveaway everyone.

  28. I'm sorry you can't win the prize MKG - I think it is something to do with the export paperwork that the company have to complete for shipping outside of Europe and also the cost of postage. Thanks for your list though.
