No need to pay in advance, but if you don’t receive a confirmation by email, please call to make sure we received the order. Plants will be available for pickup around Memorial Day weekend, depending on the temperatures.
We will also have a limited number of herbs and annuals available.
Tomatoes
Generally, hybrid tomatoes are more prolific and uniform than heirloom varieties, and hybrids usually have more resistance to disease, but many people say heirlooms taste a little better. We start our tomatoes in mid-March, and grow them on in 4-inch pots. Last year we put them in the ground about June 1, and our first ripe tomatoes came in the last week of July. All of these varieties are indeterminate unless noted.
