ditto on the tigger melons! I honestly did not think I would get honeydews in such a small space and planted them because even the vine smells so good and it lingers in the air in those dog days when you don't want to be in the garden. but the tigger melons smell even better. I promised myself I was going to try some small muskmelons this year instead, but now I'm not sure :wink: do you think they'd make good jelly?

Lots of cool stuff I will be growing for the first time this year (hopefully, if all goes well!): Tromboncino squash, pineapple sage, lemon grass, ginger if I can get one to sprout this year ....

I get excited about tomatoes because I just can not buy good FLAVOR tomatoes in the grocery store. There is nothing better than vine ripe tomatoes.

I get excited about every thing I grow.
