We had a freak frost here around May 4th (our last frost date here is April 22nd). The frost hit only a small spot in the yard where I had some tomatos planted using the lasagna gardening method with cardboard and straw. I had to use my back-up plants to replant but this Chinese Velvet tomato for which I had no back-up. Luckily it survived and I can use it in my tomato breeding projects. Always have a back-up plan!
Martoc broad beans. And those are Sugar Magnolia peas in the background, one of the better purple peas I'm growing. Sugar Magnolia is a Alan Kapular variety that I got from Peace Seelings. I wan't to try to cross Sugar Magnolia with Carouby de Maussane.
A jungle of stuff!
Lasagna style garden area with tomatos with sunchokes.
Paste tomato trials. Each bamboo stick is a different variety.
Bush bean trials.
Three sisters area. I just planted some of the beans.
Rows of stuff
Wow! You have a HUGE garden!!! It looks great!
ReplyDeleteHow many tomato plants do you have growing?
Thanks Toni! I'm not sure how many tomato plants are growing but I think about 100.
