Mostly, Trish and I grow just flowers in our yard. But, one thing, beyond flowers, we can’t so without: tomatoes!
For the past weeks our plants have been rewarding us with abundance!
We grow several varieties, both determinate and indeterminate, to keep the season starting early and then lasting over a long time.
The Early Girls and producing multitudes of pound sized fruit; perfect for Caprese salads with fresh mozzarella! A lunch time treat.
The Big Boys are even larger: just the right size for a single slice to more than cover the bread for a great sandwich. We are also having a wonderful crop of Cherokee Purples, so sweet and tasty.
Then, there are the little babies, about half dozen varieties and colors here. They make a great snack to just pop in your mouth. Each variety has a different flavor that makes them so interesting.
Not counting these little ones, it looks like we will be picking about two dozen today! What delicious fun.
