Market in Uetersen

The stall holders at the Sunday market in Uetersen last weekend wore traditional dress and their stalls, full of  baskets of  fresh and beautiful fruit and vegetables were very picturesque.

Chillies

Normal lemons and avocado

An odd shaped citrus fruit was on display, a lemon that was all skin and no juice - especially good if you want lemon zest.

This is a citrus fruit - lemon zest without the pulp.

Uetersen Rosareum

Uetersen (just north west of Hamburg) is one of the world's most important rose breeding areas and the Uetersen Rosarum is worth a visit at any time of the year. A lot of roses are still flowering there in September and I am told that in winter it is a wonderful place to tramp through the snow.
