The wife has been raising flowery things from seeds this year, hopefully to make the $1500 per year in plant purchases go down a bit.
Anyway, in between rainstorms this weekend, she's been putting the saplings into the actual ground. It's been very exciting. Except that it hasn't, but I'm trying to be excited.
$1500 per year? We haven't spent $1500 on our garden in MY LIFETIME. I'm jealous. These are FREE seeds from the Children's museum. That's what I'm reduced to: Soup Kitchen Seeds.
Maurice: We have to grow these plants in cups because our yard is toxic. OR haunted. Probably both.
Andrew:
That sucks. If you like fresh tomatos, that is. I prefer artificially created "Tomato (TM)" which have never actually been touched by nature and are printed on a 3d printer using specially formulated protein paste.
It did suck. It was this incredible over-achiever as far as tomatoes go--we still don't have any other ones--and I knocked it off the vine before it was ready.
I'm not really much of a tomato person, BUT the tomatoes we grew last year were very excellent, so I'm hoping the same this year.

That's awesome!
We had our first tomato. Had. because I knocked it off the vine while trying to look at it. :(
I used to have a pretty good garden going a few years ago, but I'm having trouble getting plants to grow. You have a great looking set of plants Man.
