Customer Reviews

From heirlooms to salsa

"Terrific Tomatoes" is attractive and easy-to-follow. It begins with general growing advice and moves on to specifics such as container gardening - for color, with herbs, in hanging baskets. "In the Garden" Luebbermann reviews techniques and varieties for a "really early" patch, an Italian tomato garden, a riot of colors. Another section is devoted to exotics, from tomatillos to ground cherries to heirlooms. And she concludes with tomatoes in the kitchen, from soup to sun-dried to salsa. Photos by Faith Echtermeyer are lush and crisp and show the plants as they really are - complete with insect holes and spots.
