I bought my tomato sets yesterday. I always get plants as we have a really great selection around here. Tomorrow I will start planting them as today I was busy planting the annuals that I also bought yesterday.

Well, I did plant the "patio" tomato plant in a big planter which is actually a plastic half barrel.

I have six packs of VIVA ITALIA, a roma type and PARKS WHOPPER which I often get and JULIET grape tomatoes, I love grape tomatoes and been buying them at the supermarket (I snack on them) and EARLY GIRL which is another I always get and BEEFMASTER. Then I have single plants of MORTGAGE LIFTER, SWEET 100, SUPER FANTASTIC, another Grape tomato and two BETTER BOYS. Plus that patio type that is already planted.

The single plants I bought at Home Depot which really has a good selection if you want your plants one at a time. Then the six packs I bought at my favorite nursery that I buy most of my plants at. They had thier veggies out for sale as they have them inside. It has been cold here, too cold for tomatoes but by the end of the week it is supposed to get really nice. Well, Home Depot always has their tomatoes outside and they haven't died so I guess they will be ok here too. Tomorrow I am gonna start planting them.

So what tomato types is everyone planting? I just love my home grown summer tomatoes!
