Thanks. They are good. I like Painted Pink a lot.
Here is a Tigerella on the left, and Early Orange Stripe on the right. |

I should really pick more often. I last picked four days ago. This was this morning's haul.

Definitely a nice looking, tasty haul! I am patiently waiting for my turn at the harvest end of this tomato farming. I picked 4 big ?? from those grated plants that were given to me but do not know what they are except very tasty, kinda thick skinned, and not many seeds

Wow she's a cutie for sure. I wish my plants were that far along. Except for the solitary better boy unfit to sell all mine are still green.

Very nice Cole. Your about a week ahead of me I think. I have dozens breaking color right now. Should be a good week at market! Hope you sell out.

Another nice looking bunch Cole, we ate the one my grand daughter helped pick tonight - it was the 5th from the grafted plants - mighty good with few seeds

Thanks. I do like that counter arrangement better than any flowers.
Here are Green Tiger and Brad's Atomic Grape: |

Cherry update
Esterina is a good variety, high yield and good flavor. But it still tastes like a hybrid. Johnny's replaced White Cherry in their catalog with Esterina, but I ate my first White Cherry yesterday, and it is much better tasting than Esterina, not even close.
Ambrosia Red has great flavor for the second year in a row. I just ate my first Ambrosia Orange, and I think it easily beats Sungold in flavor. I think I have Ambrosia Gold out there somewhere, too. Painted Pink is the best-tasting pink/red antho cherry that I have had. Bosque Blue Bumble Bee is back as my yellow antho cherry. It's like seeing an old friend again. |
