Tomatoes

I went to a free "veggie planting" seminar at the local nursery chain at the beginning of March.  Historically, I have NEVER been able to get tomatoes to grow so I was going to call it quits on it this year.  The seminar said that if you want to plant tomatoes, you have it to do it "now" i.e. March 1st.  That was my problem.  I usually don't start planting anything until April.  So I went ahead and bought 2 tomato plants that I could grow in containers.  I am proud to say that I actually have at least 4 tomatoes, and they are beauties!!! 

Here they are only a week ago.
I can't believe they are turning red now!
















The green beans are now a lost cause... still alive but don't look too hot.  The snow peas are a goner, and their containers have been "reused" for flowers already.  The jalapenos are growing like crazy!  Again, I planted them way early this year.  I hope to get a ton of them so I can share them!
