Johnny's
The Johnny's Seed Catalog arrived today. Roomie and I took up the conversation of what we want to grow this year. There are a few new wintering bulbs that will be coming up: garlic (which Roomie learned to harvest and process at Los Poblanos last year) and some tulips among the roses.
The produce basket looks pretty much like
- Heirloom tomatoes
- Chiles
- Beans
- Peas
- Squash
- Zucchini
- Melons
Roomie prefers growing tomatoes from starts, but I am partial to the idea of starting them from seed and bartering for more variety. I hope that we are able to start scheduling when the various plants go in; I have heard that the squash and zukes are more of a late summer thing, ie after the squash beetles are no longer a threat.
In any case, it is hard to fault Johnny's timing.
