Andrey's 2023 garden

[KarenO]

I have grown Terasenko 6. A very tall and vigorous vine with medium globe shaped brown fruit. It did quite well here for me. I have tried a number of the Terasenko varieties my favourite was Chyornyi of the ones I have grown. They all seem to do well in general here in Canada although I had some issues with BER on the pointed reds.
I am interested to see what Terasenko 7 is like, I hope you post photos. Is it a pointed red?

Thank you Andrey & KarenO for your response to my question. I didn't know Tarasenko produced "brown" fruit. I think I would like to try it for my garden next season.

Where is a good seed source for Tarasenko 6 ???

Or course, I will do it. But Tarasenko 6 is red indeed. Something happen on your side that it became brown

[KarenO]

Hmm
Interesting. Perhaps I have my wires crossed. I’ll go back through my older pics and see. Maybe it was something else and I remember wrong. I’ll see if I can find a photo

Here’s what I grew from seed labeled Terasenko 6
It may have been from you, it came from the mmm swap I believe.
It was a reddish brown globe. Green gel so a gf red ( brown) tomato.
If it’s not correct that’s interesting and I would grow it again if it was a cross.

[Andrey_BY]

No, it is not Tarasenko 6

[KarenO]

Ok that’s actually good must have been a bee cross hybrid then. Explains the massive plant. I’ll have to grow some out next year and take a look at the plants again
Thanks Andrey

It should be a massive plant, but with red fruit. Black Tarasenko is a good name

[Andrey_BY]

Almost all pepper and tomato plants have been transplanted in 3 GHs in May 1 and May 8 and doing fine despite daily night frost.

i see a healthy looking clump of iris growing. i have a purple variety that dates
back to the late 40s early 50s. my mom said they came with the house. they are
a light purple in color, and fragrant. i have moved them every where i have lived.

Yes, we have about 10 iris varieties in the garden. Not so old as yours

Soup! I see soup! My favorite mid day meal, what kind is is?
Lovely flowers, and I'm happy for all the greenhouse and garden space that you have to work with.

Yeah, this was a green borshch with fresh sorrel and eggs. It is known as Polish Sorrel Soup outside Belarus and Poland, but it is our traditional soup here
We have flowers everywhere here at dacha and at city home as well e.g. Begonias, Easter cactus (ripsalidopsis) - both on photos, Christmas cactuses of different colors, pelargoniums, citruses, succulents and others
Always searching for more varieties and colors, especially of forest cacti (ripsalidopsis, schlumbergera, epiphyllum, disocactus).

[Andrey_BY]

Everything's doing fine on the garden. The biggest epiphyllum is blooming with a very pleasant scent.
