T&M launch gin and tonic tree...on April Fool's Day!
 
The team at Thompson & Morgan had a bit of fun on April Fool's Day on Friday when they announced the launch of the gin and tonic tree.

Following the success of the dual-cropping Tomtato (tomatoes and potatoes from one plant) and Egg & Chips (aubergines and potatoes on one plant), Thompson & Morgan announced it was launching its latest innovation in grafting technology: The Gin & Tonic Tree.
 
The statement added: "The Gin & Tonic Tree is set to be the first in a series of grow-your-own beverages. Expect to see the Vermouth Vine and Sherry Cherry following in future years.
 
"A limited stock of the Gin & Tonic Tree has been made available for the spring despatch season. A further 100,000 plants will be made available this summer for autumn delivery."
 
Thompson and Morgan recommended growing The Gin & Tonic Tree alongside a lemon tree to complete the ingredient list.

We weren't fooled, were you?
