Hello My Friends
Well, spring hasn't quite sprung yet, but things are looking up. Yesterday was a beautiful spring like day and it was seventy degrees here in the high mountain desert. These early warm days can fool you, you might plant some little green things only to have a snow storm blow up. I hate it when that happens. The fruit trees are beginning to wake up from their winter snooze and here's proof. A peach tree full of blossoms.
My seed order from Burpee arrived the other day, hope and anticipation! It's time to get some things going in the sunny window. One of my favorite tomato seeds arrived. It's called Shimmer. These are very pretty little sort of pear shaped tomatoes with lovely orange and yellow streaks. They are small, only about two inches long but are about the tastiest tomatoes on the planet. Great for salads and just to eat out in the garden. Also time to start peppers, cucumbers, flowers, and a variety of other tomatoes in the sunny window. Fresh tomatoes, lettuce, herbs, and cucumbers from the garden. Salad that can't be beat. Come on summer!
Happy Gardening
Jack
