That tube, in the lower left corner of the picture, it has tamarind seeds in it. If anyone is interested, comment and I’ll send you one. Hurry, the supply is quite limited.
I live on Connecticut, and I didn’t know tamarind would grow this far north! One of my garden goals is to try growing things that aren’t supposed to grow in my zone, just to see if they will. Coffee would be nice. Or sugar cane. :-)
Love the photo. And who but another gardener would guess how much fun it is to read someone else’s shopping list! Are you saving seed from all those varieties of tomato without cross pollination?
I’ve seen quite a few recommendations for Fedco and really wanted to give them a try this yea. I could not, however, find on their website how to get a print catalogue. The pdf versions are frustrating for me because my brain (and wrists) just don’t do all the scrolling very well.
I looked up tamarind, but read it’s frost sensitive, so it wouldn’t do well here. Maybe if I ever figure out where to put a bunch of big potted plants……
I can’t imagine I could grow tamarind here in England. I don’t even know what the plant looks like, so will research it soon.
Our seed delivery came today.
I still have to put in my heritage seed order. thanks for the reminder.
