Got my springtime tomatoes planted today, largely because my visiting adult daughter did most of the work. Her name is Sarah. The other helper is my Shelter adopted mixed breed, Trudi. I will be in the wheelchair several months. That's why, as I mentioned on another thread, I'm growing tomatoes using Earthboxes. My wife, Elise, who is taking the photo, spends her non-office hours taking care of me. She doesn't love my tomatoes, but has still stayed with me for over 33 years of marriage.

Planted 10 plants of five types. A full-sized indeterminate red, Momotaro; a dwarf red indeterminate, Husky Red; a full-sized indeterminate orange, Sweet Ozark Orange; a determinate yellow cherry, Gold Nugget; and an cherry sized bicolor red/gold indeterminate, Isis Candy. Here Sarah is planting Momotaro.
