Down here on Long Island we only put our tomatoes out around May 27th - it's Jack's birthday gift to himself to spend the day on his knees. At the same time we plant all the annuals he grows from seed and I plant the dahlias. Planting in cold soil isn't good for the plants...or the gardeners.

Lovely plants, everyone. That orchard really brings spring much closer to my eyes! Nice collage, Jo Ann. Allison - some take off and form grand patches and others languish. Threaten it and move it and maybe it will do better. Maybe a little super phosphate would help - it could hardly hurt! WC - fabulous!
