I managed to get one or two cucamelons to grow from seed, this one climbing along the wall of my shed has little fruits on it. Everything is growing so slowly this year though it’ll be october before I see anything large enough to eat!

My sundew is doing better outdoors, I just don’t think it liked the heat of the conservatory as much as I thought it would. It had died back to a tiny green nub but a week or two in the garden and its bursting its pot! Not really but it did recover nicely…

Close up of the sundew. Actual size is about 5″ in diameter.
I walked past an unsusual for me anyway yellow Buddleia. I will try to collect seeds from it when they turn. I think it will make a great contrast to Juliet’s Black Knight variety.
