A fun thread!

I can't recall (Matice?), Fourth of July, Early Girl, generic plum, San
Marzano, and Sun Sugar cherry.

Eggplant:

Dusky, White Beauty, Black Beauty, Classic, and the sampler from Cook's
Garden.

Peppers/Chile:

Ancho, Anaheim, Lilac, Whopper, Golden Summer, Large Hot Thai, Long Cayenne.

Herbs:

Basil, Dill, Italian Flat leaf parsley, slo-bolt Cilantro, oh and how
can I forget, GARLIC

Corn:

First block is Seneca/Daybreak and the rest of the season I plant Silver
King (really really good!).

Pumpkin/Gourds:

Howden -- excellent for carving... good size, wonderful shape
Speckeled Swan gourd, Turk's Turban, various small varieties. I didn't
get my dipper or bottle gourds going in time this year. :-(

Flowers:

Various sunflowers, zinnia, dahlia, gladiolus.

I'm sure I've forgotten some. :-)
