Re: Wow

I bought it as a plant. It was the only tomato plant we had [my sister's allergic to them], so when I saw them at a nursery, I remembered what Kitty had said and bought just one for me.

Jim and Kitty - did you buy the sun cherry as a plant? Or seeds? And where 
did you find them?  I'd like to try them this year.

I think you recommended Suncherry last year... anyway we planted it; very 
nice, good flavor and very productive.

The tomatoes ...are coming up in the greenhouse.

Mine'll go in the ground.

That sounds like fun. One day I'd like to have time to go through the
Master Gardener program. I looked into here once, it was years back, but 
the classes were all the way down in Los Angeles and so was the
volunteer time. That's an hour's drive. Now even if it were close I
don't have the time. But one day...
I cleaned up the pond on Saturday, that went a lot faster than I
expected, and put the rest of my plants from High Country Garden in the ground. Got some weeding done in the dry garden. There's sure a lot of grass in there, sigh...I made a couple clear spots anyway. It got so 
windy I couldn't stay out, too much dirt in my eyes.
The tomatoes and peppers are coming up in the greenhouse. Husband got a wild hair and decided that he could grow better tomatoes in pots than I can in the ground, and use much less water too. So off he went to buy his own seeds. I'm encouraging this of course although I think he is grossly overestimating how much water one garden bed actually uses, and he's going to get bored pretty quick measuring how much water he pours 
into the pots. It will be interesting to see how it goes.
Sunday started out very cold and raining and then got extremely windy. I dashed outside only once to put the horses in their stalls. Even the 
dogs didn't want to go out there.

Sure been quiet.
Did my first 4 hours on the Master Gardener desk yesterday. Slow day there, too--about seven phone calls and only two walk-ins. Issues de 
jour seemed to be carpenter ants--hint: they're swarming now--and
fertilizing blueberries. Also got a couple of calls about our plant
sale: when? [first Saturday in May]; will we have heirloom tomatoes? 
[about 40 varieties].

Kinda boring, so I read through the log to see what kind of calls
other shifts had gotten [mostly carpenter ants and blueberries] but
about a week ago someone called in for information on grafting figs. 
Wish I'd gotten that call; it would've been fun.
