wildflowers said:How exciting, Rita! I typically grow all of my garden from seed. I think it makes for a very rewarding adventure, watching everything grow and fruit. But, like you said, it can be disappointing if plants don't produce much, or any at all. Heirlooms are funny like that. Often they don't produce like the popular hybrids but they can really make up for it with flavor!

I have never been impressed with the makes up for it with flavor argument. If it is extra stingy with the fruit it is a bust for me no matter how great those very few fruits taste. I need production from my tomato plants or they don't get to return to my garden.
