Yesterday and today I moved quite a few of the guests outdoors into er.. temporary accomodations. The weather has gotten rather warm so this at least is not a worry.
Since we still have bee in house, cross pollination outdoors is not a big worry either. If I want true seeds in or out, I'll have to bag them. Meanwhile I've given up on flower colour, being suspicious of more than a few, I simply moved them outside and kept only those with some trait I definitely am interested in.
I cornered the bee one evening, but didn't have the heart to kill it.
So I took pictures of it instead. Jaunty little thing... and what a tomato enthusiast!
