Growing Tomatoes & White Fly

My glass-house is situated on the back lawn near the Wattle Woods, almost underneath the trees. The burbling water race is nearby.

I grow both tomatoes with attendant white fly in my messy glass-house. I have my good years and bad but to be honest I'd rather be outside pottering about in the garden.

Plants Wintering Over

I use the glass-house all year round. In summer the panes of glass are white-washed over, to stop things inside from overheating. Plants like Pelargoniums, Helichrysums and Daisies have to spend the winter inside. There's no need for heating though, as the frosts don't bother the plants inside.

The flaxes along the water race seem to have doubled in size. And those weedy trees in the top picture are actually rather nasty - I suspect they are Deadly Nightshade. Eek!
