Time to tie up the tomatoes
Tools for the trade!
Heirloom tomato plants grow up big and tall.
Heavy duty cages are needed and staking will help the plants from falling over.
I use jute string to tie up stalks that want to escape captivity.
The plants are getting heavy with tomatoes!
Garden Gear
Lucy hung out in greenhouse with me on Sunday, trying to soak up some warmth!
I had my camera with, and she snapped away at the seedlings and then had me model my new linen garden apron I made.
Just look at that pose!
A new garden apron
I wanted a new garden apron for working in the greenhouse.
I needed a couple of extra pockets and a place to keep a pencil for marking plant tags.
So I found a scrap of brown linen and sewed a rectangle of fabric onto the the front of the apron.
Nothing fancy here folks, no measuring–just eyeball it!
Now, I have plenty of pockets!
Those sweet seed packets were designed by my daughter Laura!
