Default Artistic Harvest

These are some of the prettier fruits from yesterday’s harvest, and my first attempt at canning pickles:

Very nice. What's the orange one in front, just left of center?

It's looking quite a bit like my Kellogg's Breakfast, in terms of shape. Still blushing, not ripe yet, so can't compare color yet.

Mine all look like pin cushions from the squash bugs.

OMG - these are absolutely gorgeous

I am still weeks away from the late season maters here in PNW... (sob)

Can you tell us what variety are they? This fella at the top left corner looks like Caspian Pink... yumm.

Thanks for all the compliments guys.

Earl,
Thanks for the seeds!

Just got a new (to me) computer this weekend, so I'm just now getting back online here at work.

daylilydude,
Feel free to use this pic as your background. Just an FYI, you might see it again on a jar of salsa. It's the pic I took for one of my advertising friends to make a lable for the salsa I've been selling this year.

chilhuacle,
That orange one would be a Kellog's Breakfast.

Feldon,
I guess you owe supergirl 2 cents! :wink:

Tania,

I'll do my best to list the varieties. I really need to get photo shop so I can lable the acutal pic.

Top 3 from left to right: Polish C, Kellog’s Breakfast, Germaid Red

Second row left to right: Coustralee, Lime Green Salad, Aunt Gertie’s Gold, Aunt Ruby’s German Green, Wes, Lime Green Salad, Brandywine Sudduth

Bottom row left to right: Kosovo Kellog’s Breakfast, Clear Pink Early, (Can’t remember this one), and Cherokee Purple
