I love growing vegg'ls.
So far just the basics but next this winter I'm putting up a greenhouse for hothouse tomatoes, and a trellis for grapes and hops.
I like roses too, as long as they are mold-resistant. So very few hybrid teas make the cut!
I buy heirloom seeds at farmers supplys. We have Agway in town and they carry a bunch. Check out the pretty striped tomatoes, I think called 'brandywine'.
