Getting quite a few visitors lately. They love the cosmos and baby's breath too. Sunflowers not so much, I guess they prefer the pollen types.
Those wasps are hardcore, saw a vid of some idiot purposefully getting stung on the arm. Fun to watch him squirm I have to admit.

Rebel Alliance doing its thing. Had some fungal issues due to the tight squeeze and had to use copper. I hope I did not arrest the growth of these babies. Two plants sharing a grow bag.
I really like the single Tom flower it establishes before putting out hundreds of others

If you could only partake in the aroma the tobacco flowers put out in the early AM. Blissful. May you all have a similar moment today, my green thumbed brethren.

Those are all gorgeous RIPGC.

My mom would flip if I brought her a Rebel Alliance though! Wicked! Maybe I can conspire to do this next year, start the sucker just at the right time to be in bloom early May... She would totally flip.

Nope Marsha I don't!

Can I get them from you in the fall? Will swap you something if I have anything you like!

As you can imagine, I don't need more seeds! Pm me with your address, I'll get some out in the mail. They have a longer germination time than most tomatoes, even up to 10 days.
Not a general offer.

Think my parents would do the same, might have to see if has made its way down under.

RIPGaryColeman, I really like your photos and I'm glad you have Spanish heirloom tomatoes on your list, they are really good
