Something new we are trying out this year is Grafted Tomatoes. We will be trialing four different varieties: Mortgage Lifter, San Marzano, Brandywine Pink, and Brandywine Red. For those of you who do not know, a grafted tomato is the result of fusing an heirloom tomato plant with a newer hybrid plant. By doing this, the hybrid helps the heirloom be more vigorous, disease resistant, and bountiful. To see how they’re doing so far, see the pictures below.

Mortgage Lifter produces heirloom beeftsteak tomatoes averaging around 2 1/2 pounds. It matures in 80 days in the full sun and grows about 36-40 inches tall.

San Marzano has thick and meaty flesh that is perfect for sauces or pastes. It’s an indeterminate roma type that matures in 80 days. It grows about 40-48 inches in the full sun.

Brandywine Pink is a large, beefsteak-shaped tomato. It matures in 85 days in the full sun and grows about 40-48 inches tall.

Brandywine Red produces deep-red fruits averaging 2 lbs. It matures in 80-100 days. Indeterminate.

Calendula Ball’s Orange

Posted on November 7, 2012 by admin

Ball Seed has come out with a new Calendula they call Ball’s Orange. It grows 12 to 24 inches tall and produces deep orange, double blooms. The flower is about 3 inches wide. We planted some in one of our gardens here at Langridge to see how they do in our unpredictable Louisiana weather. We think they look great, but see for yourself and share your opinion!
