Tomatoes and Marigolds


This tomato crop is probably the best we ever had. And we plant tomatoes every year. We usually have a lot of blossom end rot and cracking. Two years ago, we had a truckload of topsoil dumped on top of our garden. Seems like good soil is the key.



I don't usually do a lot of spring time gardening because of my allergies. I sleep through the spring. But not this year. I think because we had so much rain. These marigolds were some of the seedlings I started in egg cartons. All I paid for was potting soil because the seeds were a few years old. And I love them. I especially love that it's so bushy and green. Now if they were just perennials that I didn't have keep planting every year. I'm going for low maintenance!
