The Seeds Are Here....

It may be mid January, but it's never too cold or dark to think about the garden. Today the first three parts of my seed order arrived. Tomatos are the fruit of the hour, and the season, and all future seasons. In fact, tomatos are practically I'll I care about this summer (in addition to daylilies, lilies, peonies, etc...). Fine- I'm basically lieing, the tomato seeds were the first to arrive and thus the first to be obsessed over. This year I am interested in growing more tomatoes then I have room for. This is sure to be a problem, but until the law of physics ruin my greenhouse, I'm excited about the many heirloom tomatos that I could enjoy this season. So far, the tomatos that I have ordered are:

• Purple Prince (the best tasting tomato...EVER)
• Stupice (fabulously early and productive)
• Tumblers (great for hanging)
• Gardener's Delight
• Yellow Perfection
• Bloody Butcher (only for the name)
• Golden Girl
• Golden Cherry
• Harbinger
• Early Cascade

I won't plant the tomatoes until the 3rd week of February, but until then I will fantasize about the delicious possibilities.
