If you go to http://tinypic.com/1r509n5u you can see my lettuce patch with green, red, and freckled lettuce, among the odd buckwheat, alyssum, and impatiens. There is catnip showing in the upper right, and a jalapeno in the lower right. Very nice Billy. Wish my tomatoes were that big. Maybe I'm just lucky, or it could be that the tomatoes with fruit are Glaciers (60 days to maturity, determinate, for container gardening), germinated mid-March, and grown with clear plastic ground cover. The garden is a month ahead of where it was last year, whereas most gardens in the region are 3 weeks behind normal. Usually, we don't get tomatoes until September, and we've already had five of them (a small Marmande, 2 Stupice, and 2 Glacier + 2 more waiting to be picked ;O). BTW - I'm not 100% sure, but I think your unknown plant is a comfrey... Thanks, that pretty much makes it unanimous. It was still in the unknown-folder because of one of my personality traits, sloth. Hopefully it is out now. I have lots of garden pictures on Facebook, I shouldn't be hard to find.
