a closer look at the tomatoes

12 noon:  Heart's Delite Black, 6:  Adelaide Festival - and I must update my favourite tomato of 2018 - this is it!!  Amazing flavour - the only one I really wanted; unfortunately not a big cropper, but I will try in my raised bed next year .... the larger cherries are KARMA Pink, and smaller are Cherry Roma along with one ripe Fuego Verde

Here they are, my first ripes of the year "Saluteus" and "KARMA Pink" special thanks to Craig, Karen and Marsha!!

just had to include my Adam F1 cucumber - delicious ......

July 14 Container Tomatoes and More

Here are the container tomatoes - July 14th ...... and a ripe tomato!! "Saluteus" my Dwarf Project grow out; the plant is looking a little tired and yellow - not sure if nutrient deficiency or disease

KARMA Pink is also starting to blush, although plant does not seem that healthy

and even more amazing - check out my Donkey Ears pepper - not bad for mid July here on the coast;  peppers seem to enjoy growing in small containers
