We now have more basil than we know what to do with. Which is a very novel experience for us. I mean, to have plants that are actually flourishing as opposed to languishing... It's a great new feeling. K's been putting in all the hard work in tending to the plants, so all the kudos go to him.
Our tomato plants had all collapsed under the weight of the new baby tomatoes growing on them. So we had to get bamboo stakes to help hold them up. There must be like 15 to 20 tomatoes growing. What a harvest coming up.___________________
Update: I underestimated. There are almost 50 baby tomatoes growing. None of them ripe yet though. A bumper crop.

Fio, I would absolutely luuurrve to have some of your basil! McCormick dried basil will not measure up to this! :-) Can basil thrive in Singapore's weather?

McCormick basil certainly doesn't measure up to this. Can basil thrive in Singapore's weather?
Ahh. I see the stake in the ground idea is aive and well.
Hey Mich,
Basil can thrive in Singapore, my ex-boss had lots growing and she used to pass some to us. But we've never had any success personally, cos I think it thrives more in a big big pot/garden rather than a small pot in the kitchen.
Hey Shaun,
Yeah, but we only started using the stake in the ground idea a couple of days ago. When I couldn't stand seeing the plants lying down instead of growing up, under the weight of the tomatoes.
