Finally got around to attacking the greenhouse that had turned into
a bit of a jungle. Turns out not only have we got


(which
were a bit obvious, but there are /lots/ of them), and an awful lot
more peppers than I thought (still all green), but there are 4
really impressive aubergines under all that greenery (2 nearly
normal size, 2 minis, possibly a couple more that are waiting to
grow).

IMAG0210, is it a kiwi fruit? It looks like mine, but I have no fruit
yet

Come on Baz,
The OP said they were cucamelons

Yes, I know. I was wondering if the OP is wrong. The foliage looks exactly
like my kiwi plant.

I braved the rain to get a couple of leaves, one of Cucamelon and the
other off my Kiwi

This is just the cuc. it is a lot smaller and very papery when compared
to Kiwi which is thick, tough and almost leathery.
