Hi Alberta, Earl's not on right now so I hope you don't mind me answering
I believe Earl is talking about Silvery Fir Tree when he is talking about SFT. |

Silvery Fir Tree being a 3-4 foot tall dwarf plant with very fine almost carrot-like leaves and 4-6 oz round red globe-shaped fruits.
In my experience, it has a sort of one-dimensional acidic flavor which I don't mind. I can see why some people object to it, but at least it tastes something like a tomato.

How close is Mastic to the Hamptons?
Hi John,
I'm about 20-25 minutes from West Hampton. Long Island has been my home all my life, less 3 months that I spent in CA. My kids and the rugrats that call me grandma are all here too, but hubby is talking about moving west to AZ. I don't want to garden in a desert, LOL Alberta |
