Look at the beautiful jungle and see the density of vegetation. This jungle photo may show you how dense jungle is and how impossible it is to penetrate or trespass jungle without damaging the beautiful jungle nature. Jungle is like a huge organized well structured and completely balance perfect mess. It looks like a mess, but in reality jungle is as perfect as mankind never can produce anything ever. That is the reason why jungle prospers and grows and survives over thousands of years without any fertilizer, without pesticide, without herbicide. Jungle is made by God and thus all exists in abundance for all and all has a divine reason to be even if mank ind fails to understand the full purpose of jungle or nature made by God.

Entering the RHS summer fruit and vegetable competition marquee is like walking into a village show. It's modest in size and the exhibits are displayed on white plates arranged on wooden tables. As in most village shows, the same names dominate the winners cards. I was surprised to see that a lot of them were from as far away as Plymouth and Essex, but this is a national competition and rather early in the season for northern growers.
Alongside the plates of beetroots and carrots are handy tips for the aspiring exhibitor. Advice like '..to get good colour in your beetroots, water the row with a solution of 10ml of salt in a gallon of water 2 weeks before harvest' or 'after washing your carrots, wrap them in damp kitchen paper and keep them cool - good colour is worth 3 or 4 points', could make all the difference.
The fruit exhibits impressed me most - it was painful looking at huge, luscious black cherries 'Summer Sun' and not being able to taste them. I've never tried the strange looking 'doughnut' peaches, but was assured they are very sweet, have white flesh and a very small stone, 'Saturn' was the variety on show. One allotment society from Yealmhampton near Plymouth had a fantastic display that included a pineapple!
Very helpful fruit enthusiasts from the Northern Fruit Group (www.northernfruitgroup.com ) are on hand to give advice and answer questions. I found out how to prune a reluctant gooseberry and Clifford from Fruitscape told me there was no excuse for not growing lots of fruit in my small London garden.
