This was my first year growing Metallica Tomatoes from the Dwarf Tomato Project. They grow approx 3ft tall but deliver yields like larger cultivars so they're a wonderful choice for smaller spaces.

Metallica is a pink tomato with green stripes, tangy-slightly sweet, 4-16 oz.

I'll definitely grow Metallica Tomatoes again next year.

I grow food year-round; this is one of our mini-harvests from July.

From our garden: assorted tomatoes and Napolitano basil for Caprese salad plus mint for herbal iced tea. The corn was a generous gift from a friend’s garden; I roasted it in butter with Tajín.

My Stock flowers surprised me by blooming in a high-90s heatwave in July; they're usually done once spring temps hit the mid-70s. These highly fragranced blooms are pollinator magnets and are edible for humans.

This is my grown-from-seed Blue Vervain back in July 2024. She is thriving and blooming and is several feet tall now. The pink flowers in the background are Brompton Stocks.
