First peek at the driveway dwarf menagerie...
Taken last week in between our vacation and my business trip to Phila....on a misty early morning. I will separate the grow bag rows a bit once the seedlings are gone.

Wow! That's a lot of dwarves! Did you ever find a home for all your leftovers?

Re the foster home for unfittable dwarfs - yes, we did appear to find a place! Lee identified a somewhat distant (but authentic!) garden in which to place the vast majority, and they will be on their way there early next week.

With that as only a start it's good that you like the taste of tomatoes. :-)

Yowza! The only things I have growing in my driveway are the weeds in the cracked concrete!
How do you like the growbags? I've been thinking about giving them a try. |

Great looking crop! Are dwarf tomatoes available through greenhouses and/ or mail order? If so, who is selling them? I think I will try a few next season if they are available.

peek at driveway
Nice plants. They look identical to mine! I hope that the white bags will keep the plants warm enough up here...I'd prefer black ones if they carried them. I can see that the white would work better in your part of the country. Where's the car parked these days?

Ah, yes, the cars - two views from middriveway looking in each direction. We have a long driveway, and haven't played basketball in years!

Yes indeedy - my tomato, eggplant and pepper garden. I am using my 30 X 50 foot soil garden to grow other stuff - lettuce, chard, squash, beans, melons, cukes, etc.
