What's blooming this season?

So my mom is very jealous of the fact that I was able to get heirloom tomato plants just before the New Year and plant them. A few nights being covered by an old sheet to keep the frost off and we now have a steady supply of sweet tomatoes. Over the weekend they were used to make a traditional bruschetta. I will use the next batch to fine tune the recipe. The best part? Because they are in pots I can move the plants into the shade when our Arizona summer really heats up and prolong their life a while!

Tomatoes planted with basil. Everybody wins.
