Love chokos in a curry too.Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12594244181463706442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-431997613353685105.post-50246346030251748642014-06-25T07:05:25.658+10:002014-06-25T07:05:25.658+10:00Hi there, thanks for visiting, I will do another s...Hi there, thanks for visiting, I will do another swap later in the year, sorry you missed it this time around, BettyElderberry-Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14197689596360708239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-431997613353685105.post-89135393222801638742014-06-24T15:49:47.190+10:002014-06-24T15:49:47.190+10:00When I was a child we had a choko vine that my mot...When I was a child we had a choko vine that my mother used to over cook and force us to eat! Then one of my sisters grew them and always added them into her casseroles. To tell the truth I cannot remember the taste so am wondering how they go with apple in a desert. Clever disguise I say. Thanks for joining my stalkers list, I ramble on my blog about anything, hope you get the odd laugh.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09315638690434873691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-431997613353685105.post-8638768856007768162014-06-20T13:48:33.303+10:002014-06-20T13:48:33.303+10:00Howdy do there Duchess, long time...

My mum brought me down a choko to plant on her last visit but I do fear it's a bit cold down this way, A heavy frost is on it's way next week. <br />Hope your well.

Well that's how it's been for us anyway. I'll post a photo of the vine soon. Ours is growing on the fence behind the shadehouse, so is prob only getting partial sun.duchess_declutterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01763062839151537111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-431997613353685105.post-49156414920535356072014-06-15T17:08:56.529+10:002014-06-15T17:08:56.529+10:00Good way to make things stretch a bit further too!...Good way to make things stretch a bit further too!duchess_declutterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01763062839151537111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-431997613353685105.post-31627240694470586672014-06-15T15:48:51.190+10:002014-06-15T15:48:51.190+10:00Excellent idea for when you have a never ending su...Excellent idea for when you have a never ending supply of the same vegetable. I remember them vaguely from my childhood and didn't care for them but would like to grow some. Are they easy to grow and do they need much sun.<br />Anne xx**Anne**https://www.blogger.com/profile/05595796965034742923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-431997613353685105.post-20892191012425186182014-06-12T20:59:42.963+10:002014-06-12T20:59:42.963+10:00Oh good secret!
