GARDENING – A TRICKY BUSINESS
★STAR★ LETTER WINS £25 VOUCHER
I first read the magazine when a friend at work left a copy in the staff room for anyone to read. After that first read, I put ‘subscription to Kitchen Garden’ on my Christmas and birthday list. A year went by and my family had ignored my hints. Finally, I gave it to myself as a present last Christmas. My dad, sadly, passed away before I became interested in gardening – he would be amused, and thrilled, that I have now, in your magazine, found a friendly guiding hand in this tricky business of growing veg. I don’t have a greenhouse and I was really pleased to read a letter from one of your subscribers explaining that she has grown tomatoes outside for many years – and she named the two varieties she had success with. I hotfooted it to the garden centre and bought exactly the same tomatoes – hey presto! – the first success with tomatoes I have ever had. I was still picking them in early November last year.
