Tomato - Red Grape
The Tomato Red Grape, 'Lycopersicon lycopersicum' produces long clusters of 20 or more bright red baby grape tomatoes. They are very sweet which has made them a favorite of people everywhere. The Red Grape is crack resistant, heat tolerant and has excellent disease resistance against late blight and leaf spot virus. This is an indeterminate tomato variety. Tomatoes should be planted outside after the last average frost date. In warm winter/hot summer areas, tomatoes can be planted in early fall for winter harvest. Tomatoes prefer well drained soil that is high in organic matter. Tomatoes need at least 1 inch of water a week. Soak to depth of 6 to 10 inches when watering. They need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. ... get more information
Begonia - Spectrum Christine The Begonia Spectrum Christine, 'Begonia x hybrida', are wonderfully floriferous plants that are at home in the garden, or in patio containers. This begonia is a cross between the winter flowering Begonia socotrana, and the summer flowering tuberous types of begonias. The Spectrum Christine begonias are distinguished by their large, double flowers that are pink in color. These very vigorous Spectrum Begonias are excellent in porch boxes and hanging baskets. In cool or wet climates, consider growing your Spectrum begonias on a patio or in porch boxes. These plants perform best when soil temperatures are above 60°F and when planted in flowerbeds. They should not be subjected to more than ½ day of sun as they will not tolerate a full sun location. Too much shade however, may cause the plants to become soft and less prolific in bloom. |
