Stage to grow Heirloom Tomatoes, plus more...







Before the addiction of the Heirloom tomato gardens. A rough draft.
Started seeds from the Baker Creek Heirloom selection. This will be a beautiful pink tomato.

The beginning of tomato Cambodia.

As the yard and tomatoes progressed, the growth exceeded my expectations. As the days progressed, I started to sweat. Realization and reality of what I created. Oops.


Red picnic table found in an alley was placed in the middle of the yard and garden. An outlook for the kitty. My addiction this year is not only Heirloom tomatoes, but creating privacy with climbing trellis walls and a large climbing sculpture type thing in the middle of the yard. The more this grows, the more this climbing art becomes an undetermined surprise from nature. The process has been quite interesting.The shadows from this climbing art gives the viewer a sense of "What the Hell?" I'm enjoying the surprise, and so are my neighbors. This could be quite fun at Halloween, and I intend on utilizing this in a most spooky way. My neighbor who inspired this work has decided that this went from an elephant sculpture to now a huge yard goddess.
