Planting update 5/7/2018

Well, as I wrote before, it's dangerous to let me loose in the garden store! We went this weekend to our favorite place, Naomi's, and walked out with a few extras.

Tomatoes: sungold because we all love it so much
red cherry tomato because of course
Roma "Paisano" good name and we don't succeed with the big heirlooms (plus our CSA usually keeps us swimming in them) Smaller tomatoes tend to work better for us

Pumpkin: no we don't actually have space, yes we bought one and it's snuggled into a corner of the potato bed. Why not be crazy.

Peppers: planned for one, bought 3

Eggplant: 2 of course. lavendar and dark small, asian style

more alyssium for the front yard

Tomatillos; purple and green. We discovered last year that they really need a partner for cross fertilization purposes. And boy, they were very very productive!!

Herbs: orange thyme, lemon basil, lime basil, purple shiso (the girls wanted and it's so easy to say yes to plants!)

So, the moral is, too much stuff. But it's all fabulous and good and we still have space for some cucumber and maybe a zucchini and probably another tomato and ... something else I'm sure.
