I'm envious of everyone's sapce to give so many tomatoes a try. I am looking to settle on a couple fo good performers of different classes. I think Black Krim is a keeper and and plantin it this year but I am having an otherwise more experimental year trying Hillbilly potato leaf, Matt's Wild Cherry, San Marzano (Thanks Drahk!), Debarao, Isis Candy, Sicilian Saucer (someone here gave them to me. Only two seeds left and both germinated).
Green Zebra is usally in the mix but I have grown it the past 3 years and wanted to take a break. I am epxecting tons of currant tomato volunteers too based on the number that fell in to the garden.
I like to grow at least one cherry, one plum/saucer, one yellow or green and one new variety everyyear.

There is much to be said for limited space; I enjoyed it when I had it and had an intimate relationship with every plant. Too much space can lead to overreaching (wow! did I say that!?).

Overreaching, overplanting, overbending, over tired, over extended, under capitalized....yeah, you said it Steev.

Eggplant (Many of these are from Ilex, so Paco correct my spelling. My eyes are old, and the writing is so very very tiny!) Monda San Fortuny Rayoda Bianca Eche de la Sierra #3 - 2011 (Paco? really? Give me a hint? Black, purple pink white? Morada, from "Son Fortuny", Sant Joan, Mallorca, Spain --> dark purple Rayada, name means stripped. Would have to go through the pile to get more details, I don't have it in the list of what I sent you. Can you send a photo of the seed package? Blanca, from Elche de la Sierra, Albacete --> white, mild flavor. #3, from a LISP diversity packet. Loooks Asian to me. I've seed that color pattern in Indian eggplants. This one (gets bigger than that):  |

Steev, if you have any leftover can you send me a few Black Sea Men? (I only need 4 seeds, so just throw them under a piece of tape on a piece of paper, in an envelope).
I love the color of this tomato.

You got it; I'll bring some Tuesday or Thursday, to measure and plan your riega; let me know your convenience; also the Red Kuri; you never let me know about quince plants, which should do well on your country place.

Tuesday it is; three-ish I think; why wouldn't I want dinner? Do you imagine I cook as good as you?
Sprinkle? One hopes in one hand, and (whatevers) in the other, and sees which fills up first.
How many quince plants? All proven productive, or a variety-pack? I've got a bunch from NCGR that are only now up to planting out size, so I've no idea how they do, but quince are "dogs", pretty much no whiners.

I have not successfully grown it before. My TPS of it last year all died. Hopefully I'll have better luck with it this year.
