A dedicated gardener is reaping the rewards of her labours after her plants have grown over ten feet tall.
Sushila Bakrania, 65, of Waddon, has taken to gardening since she retired.
Mrs Bakrania biggest hit has been her Hollyhock plants which have now reached ten feet tall and are still growing.
She said: "I'm very proud and happy with the way my plants seem to be growing. Especially as I am not formally educated in the field of horticulture.
"We are now also growing a huge variety including apples, potatoes, tomatoes, peas but these Hollyhock plants seem to be constantly growing."
