Hi Tessa,

Heirloom tomatoes are by far my favorite, althought there are a few rare beans seeds and pepper seeds I really like too.

The heirloom tomatoes have 5 times the taste and I plant many that are different colors so a plate full of sliced tomatoes is like art, lol.

Succession planting is the best way to make use of you garden space. I usually have a cold frame section or extra garden bed with transplants waiting to go into my empty space.

Can’t wait to see more of your garden photos! As soon as it gets a little nicer I will have photos of my gardens. Denise

Good post, Denise. I know I'm growing a lot more this year than ever before. I'm so tired of tasteless, anemic-looking tomatoes! I haven't purchased a store tomato in years! It goes a lot deeper than that, however, as it does for a lot of people this year. I'm learning more and more about succession planting and have really tried to apply this to my garden. My goal is to have something to plant when I harvest. Timing is everything! Tessa at Blunders with shoots, blossoms 'n roots’s last blog post..My Response to Old Man Winter!
