I will save seed this year and send you some for next season.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743102355360873845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359929230952480074.post-63923860192638391182009-04-22T03:42:00.000-04:002009-04-22T03:42:00.000-04:00I seem to be potting up tomatoes almost daily as t...I seem to be potting up tomatoes almost daily as they are growing so fast at the moment. Sadly, neither of my tie-dye seeds germinated but I do have one Dixie golden plant. Hope your broad beans will be showing some flower soon.Matronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07705506930308472527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359929230952480074.post-27516241514244797072009-04-21T19:26:00.000-04:002009-04-21T19:26:00.000-04:00Judy - The variegated tomato is pretty cool. I hav...Judy - The variegated tomato is pretty cool. I have heard they are suppose to not taste the greatest but that is always subjective. <br /><br />Red - I have grown the cherokee purple variety for 5 years now, it is a wonderful tomato. Never indoors though, that might be tried this fall.<br /><br />Daphne - I have just transplanted a few shrubs & perennials so I very much welcome the rain. <br /><br />Emily - Next year I will not be starting so early. Tomatoes grow so fast it really isn't necessary.<br /> <br />Tina - Now if the doctor could just remember to keep them watered, I have forgotten a few times. Its good they are potted up now and will need less care. <br /><br />KitsapFG - Being in the PNW it must make you really appreciate the sun. I would certainly miss the sun we get here, maybe not the cold though. <br /><br />Rosemary - I have a thing for strange tomatoes. Some of them certainly have interesting names. <br /><br />Chiot's Run - I am a big variegated plant fan as well. I usually find variegated plants don't perform as well as their peers but this one sure does. <br /><br />Liz - Thanks, I can't wait for the first tomato.<br /><br />Sally - You will love the Cherokee Purple, it is a great tomato.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743102355360873845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359929230952480074.post-34862513479606642372009-04-21T16:28:00.000-04:002009-04-21T16:28:00.000-04:00Great looking tomatoes.

Mine are a few weeks behind yours, but I'm also growing Cherokee Purple, so we'll have to compare notes.<br /><br />I'm so happy the rain has come to New England, especially since the water in my community garden hasn't been turned on yet.Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16533917819185792443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359929230952480074.post-80921627012454874332009-04-21T10:02:00.000-04:002009-04-21T10:02:00.000-04:00My tomatoes are still really small - I planted the...My tomatoes are still really small - I planted them much later this year as the weather has been so cold.

We each have our garden needs! <br /><br />I have tomatoes that were not planted out in my garden that go to family and friends that need to be repotted too. I had to do some chores tonight after work so it did not get done - but I am hoping to take care of that tomorrow.kitsapFGhttp://www.modernvictorygarden.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359929230952480074.post-47825041369570085192009-04-20T23:41:00.000-04:002009-04-20T23:41:00.000-04:00You are such a good 'doctor' to your patients.
