		<description><![CDATA[A few mornings ago when I looked down from my bedroom window I saw two male goldfinches clinging to the spikes of tiny, pale lavender flowers in the catnip patch below, daintily pecking at the blossoms. I grew the catnip plants from seed last year and they got a couple of feet tall. This year [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Late this afternoon I planted seven kinds of basil: Genovese basil aka basil, large leaf Italian basil, mammoth basil, Siam Queen (Thai) basil, cinnamon basil, lemon basil and lime basil. What? I like basil. And it is particularly scrumptious with heirloom tomatoes. I remember the first time I saw herb plants could come in so [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The little red cherry tomatoes are called Wild Cherry, or Matt&#8217;s Wild Cherry &#8212; they are one of my must-grows. The lone yellow cherry is my other cherry must-grow, Galina&#8217;s Yellow Cherry. The dusky ones are Black Cherry. The yellow-orange ones that look like cat&#8217;s eye sapphires are Isis Candy. In the plate of sliced [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I finished transplanting my heirloom tomato seedlings yesterday &#8212; 130 plants, 16 varieties. Tomato plants do better when they are transplanted to bigger cups once or twice before they are finally planted in the garden. I was surprised I had not paid enough attention to how leggy my tomato seedlings were. &#8220;Leggy&#8221; means the stalk [...]]]></description>

The seeds I ordered from Bradley Gates of Wild Boar Farms for some of the amazing and delicious varieties of open-pollinated tomatoes that he developed  arrived today! I know I called them &#8220;heirloom tomatoes&#8221; in the headline, and in 45 or so years they will be. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I spent the afternoon taking down my heirloom tomato garden, which is in containers on our front yard. The garden is in containers because it would have been very expensive to landscape an in-ground garden and the soil isn&#8217;t good because when this house was built, it was the practice to scrape off the topsoil, [...]]]></description>
