Although the area has long been ethnically diverse, the old Cockney barrow boys would not have been able to offer this range of tropical greengrocery. Nearest the camera here are yardlong beans (more like 18 inches in fact) which are popular in China and SE Asia. Behind are various types of gourds and snow peas.
