No Yard Blues
No Yard Blues Four years ago my house burnt down. Not to the ground but enough to ruin everything we owned. We lived in a small apartment on the first floor of a house. The residence had a great yard for garden and for Christmas I got a gift certificate to Victory Seeds to populate the fallow 10' x 10' bed. I was very excited about my planting layout. I had Yellow Brandywine, Brandywine Suddith's Strain and Black Cherry Tomatoes. I was also going to get some Black Krim and Green Zebra tomatoes too. Of course, I had basil seeds, cilantro and thyme. The rest of the vegetable cast was impressive as well. Parisian carrots, Romanesco Broccoli(it's actually cauliflower), broccoli raab, glass gem corn, six shooter corn, Market Maker cucumber, kentucky wonder beans, scarlett runner beans, red bunching onion, red russian kale, kohlrabi, zucchini, Waltham Butternut Squash and two kinds of marigolds.
