Hello Everybody !
I've been lurking here for a while - though I was pretty active in
this group in the mid to late 90's. I'm Zone 6b in SE Pa, between the Amish and Philadelphia in the Brandywine Valley, and grow just about anything that grows here, and some things that do not (like lemongrass and Bay in containers) ..... Why now ?? First (full sized) tomato of the year yesterday - a Yellow Brandywine, and my, was it delicious ! |

Got my first taste of a ripe Mortgage Lifter this past week (planted from seed on April 19). Although their shape is far from uniform, these are HUGE tomatoes ... out of 9 tomatoes I picked, I think there is one that is under 4" diameter and one just slightly over 5". I don't know how good of a juice / sauce tomato these are, but I am sure getting ready to find out! BIll -- Zone 5b (Detroit, MI) I do not post my address to news groups. |
