The Victorian Kitchen Garden S01E10 - September

September is the month that brings cook the widest choice of fruit and vegetables.
Although a time of plenty, little goes to waste. What is not eaten is stored for the winter months.
Harry is pleased with the old varieties, the purple podded pea, Couve Tronchuda the Portuguese cabbage, and Kohl Rabi , the German turnip. There is a fine crop of yellow tomatoes, the potatoes have only a trace of blight, and the cucumber glass has produced straight cucumbers. Peter visits Chatsworth to find succulent dessert grapes still being grown, the one crop Chilton has been unable to produce.
In the flower garden, while the full measure of colour remains, the fragrance of summer is gone.
