My Burpee catalog arrived a few weeks ago, and half of the pages are already dog-eared. Winter is a surprisingly productive, creative time for Midwest gardeners. We may not be getting our hands dirty, but we are busy dreaming, plotting and sifting plans for the next growing season.
I found myself crushing on these heirloom pear tomatoes, which I remember my mother growing one summer when I was a kid. They're the perfect size for salads, and they burst with flavor. The catalog says:
This extremely old variety makes a vigorous plant, which bears enormous numbers of bright yellow, bite-sized fruit. The flavor is deliciously tangy. Perfect for summer hors d'oeuvres.
