Tomato Seedlings


Look at these! These are Arkansas Traveler seedlings from saved seeds, from a tomato I grew last year. This is cool! I always thought seeds were something you just had to buy every year, that you could not save them for reasons I never considered deeply. Now I know that the cycle can be repeated.



These are Japanese Black Trifele seedlings. They're supposed to be Russian purple-brick colored pear-shaped tomatoes. I bought the seeds this year from Baker Seed company. they're supposed to be heavy producers. We'll see how they do in my yard.

Gardening is an adventure. These plants will acclimate outdoors for a week (unless we get a cold snap or another deluge), then go in the ground next week-end. We are blessed.
