This year in our Vegetable Garden at the Arboretum, we have a tomato test plot. The curator in charge has selected 11 different types of tomatoes to see which do best in our area. The ones chosen are: Beef Master, Park's Whopper, Better Boy, Bush Goliath, Juliet Roma Grape, German Johnson, German Queen, Husker Cherry Red, Tami Grape, Big Beef, and Cherokee Purple. Head out to the Arboretum to check their progress for yourself. Also, check back with the blog as we will update the successes and failures we may have. Did you know you can still plant tomatoes? There is still a long growing season ahead. Click here for some general information on
Growing Tomatoes.
