someone from church had a bunch of extra tomato plants that she was giving away, so i claimed two 3-packs (probably way too many for my shady lot). i finally finished planting them yesterday, some in pots, some in the ground in various places around my house–we’ll see where the best sun is…
they are heirloom tomatoes and i love the names of the varieties–“mr. stripey,” “white beauty,” “green zebra”…but mostly, i love the smell of the leaves. it may not be a “pretty” smell, but it definitely smells like summer.
