Pumpkins, Broccoflower, Red Brussel Sprout and Dalmation

First frost hit Leeston on Tuesday, just minus 2 but it'll be the first of many. So the pumpkins were pulled - leave a bit stalk on, evidently stops them from rotting (another tip from one of my koro).









Nice shot of Lila (Our daughter is Willa, our dog, Lila, and the cat, Milly. I get confused daily on who I'm growling...often it's Lila who digs up selected spots of my vege patch).









Two new crops for me. Broccoflower - a cross between cauliflower and broccoli (obviously :). The other is a red brussel sprout.
