Nice! What varieties of tomato are you growing?

Small or large, every garden is a beautiful site to behold.
I too would love to know the tomato varieties your growing.

Hi Levent, that's a beautiful garden. What cucumber variety are you growing? Also, are you currently growing any Turkish heirloom tomatoes?

I must check it out!As I recall it's Beith Alpha F1.
I don't grow any turkish heirloom tomatoes.We call them pinks taking roots from Balkans.

It was delicious!

Marktutt, lakelady thanks for passing by my garden.I think Ananas Noire will be this season's favorite!Sweet Basils are a must for pesto sauce .I used to grow them since years...
