No.9 Planting Tomatoes and Basils

It’s a summer treasure to harvest ripe tomatoes from our gardens, isn’t it?
My husband is the person who is so willing to dig several holes in our garden, where the soil is so rocky and just to dig a hole is really a heavy duty, hoping for the best BLT sandwiches ever that he would get after this hard labor.
But, unfortunately, we didn’t think that we would have a long enough summer the tomato plants get ripe.
So, for this summer, we had planted only two red cherry tomatoes and one yellow pear tomato in 6” pots as the cherry tomatoes became ripe and tasty in shorter weeks while the bigger sized tomatoes didn’t turn to red last summer.



As far as for basils, it was our first experience that we really enjoyed homemade pesto from fresh basils harvested from our garden last summer. We don’t want to let this summer pass without the delicious pesto in our mouths, so, we had planted three 6 packs of basils.
