Just kidding, though Lelo is an awesome neighbor and her garden is seriously inspirational.

Hello,

I am growing tomatoes in the UK. This weekend marks the date when all parts of the UK are frost free so planting out has happened!
I love the names of Heirloom tomatoes, so romantic.
I am intrigued by a 'wall of water'- that is new to me. I would love to know what it means ?

Mine are starting to come up from seed. I'm really hoping they produce for exactly the reasons you say. A supermarket tomato is not even worth the time. Home grown tomatoes are amazing.

Yep, STUPICE and SUNGOLD are always MOST of the tomato plants WE grow too! BOTH have luscious flavor and are usually indeterminate...in fact the sungold will produce into late September. Nice post, Lelo...we LOVE that tomato tasting they do at Farmington G......

We got some tomatoes in about a month ago and have been coaxing them along with the help of water walls. These past few sunny days, they have taken off like crazy, and we're now letting them go naked in the garden.

But that's beside the point. I'm wondering if you've ever tried the upside down tomato planters (example: http://www.amazon.com/Felknor-Ventures-FV504C-Upside-Down-Hanging/dp/B0015S0BFU/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=garden&qid=1243627244&sr=1-3). They seem kinda gimmicky to me, but having lost all of last year's tomatoes to blight, I'm definitely intrigued.
