Today we ordered seed for fall and next spring. Most of the time the seed packets or seedlings available in local big box stores are just fine. I like to try new plants and learn about different varieties, so usually place an on-line order. For example, Guatemalan Blue squash, two types of garlic from Germany - one is hot and the other is sweet, Bulgarian Carrot - a hot orange pepper, a yellow paste type tomato, a 7-inch long paste tomato (both the same shape as Romas), and I had to stop myself.
Every year we like to try something new to see how we like it and how well it grows here in Arizona.
Time to plant fall gardens is about a month away, so now is the time to plan and prepare.
