My tomato plants have lost most of their leaves, but a second crop of fruits is coming to maturity. Yesterday and today I harvested three cherry tomatoes for breakfast

The rest of the plants seems to have simply stopped growing, which I suppose is hardly surprising given the season. I'm wondering whether to eat the tiny leaves of rocket and tarragon before they shrivel and die, or to give them a chance to grow a bit more. Well, the tarragon at least won't grow more than this, I sowed it in the spring (well, late spring probably) and it's all of 3 cm high now. It's supposed to be a perennial plant, so hopefully next year it will do better.

I did have a nice surprise last time I watered the plants (I hardly do it anymore now, it's been raining a lot and they don't need it if they have stopped growing I guess). There is some grass growing in the bowl I left on the windowsill for that purpose. I'm not sure it's the seeds I sowed, more probably random stuff brought by the wind or some flying creatures. It's nice anyway! I hope that in the spring the poppies I sowed will bloom
