I have a few top performers in the vegetable garden this year. At the top of my list are two tomatoes.

Rosella is a salad tomato, small and compact, this delightful plant has produced dozens of tomatoes within the confines of a five-gallon cloth growing pot. I am hoping for many more harvests through the beginning of Autumn.

Spoon tomatoes have been a surprise. Grown in a five-gallon container, the plants have produced dozens upon dozens of tomatoes.

The fruit is super small, about the size of blueberries. A bit addictive, it’s easy to eat them by the handful. Best of all, the seeds were free, as a thank you for my purchase from Baker Creek Seeds.

Mini Bell Mix Peppers have been exactly what the name implies–miniature. They develop beautiful color while small in size. Delicious, and perfect to cut into pasta and garden salad, these have been productive growing in a regular sized bucket as a pot.

As you will notice from the seed packet photographs, these varieties are all from Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds. A great company, and the plus is they provide fast service and mailing. Any order over $10.00, at least this year, receives a free packet of seeds. One of the free packets was the Spoon Tomatoes.
