I love growing tomatoes. Two years ago I grew some black tomatoes from Russia that were really neat. They were very dark in color and tasted great! Organic home-grown tomatoes are SOOOO good! Much better than from the store!

I have some black tomato seeds, I’ll have to see if they’re of Russian decent! Are you growing any this summer?
I'm not sure what I'll grow just yet. The only seeds I have right now are passionflower seeds. Hopefully I can get them to grow! lol
I don’t even know what passionflower is... you’ll have do tell me about it !
Purple passionflower make passion fruit.
It's one of my favorite plants! :)
wow that is really cool.... now i need some of these seeds!! Very useful and beautiful to boot... Will it grow well in Arkansas??
They grow wild all over here, in Joplin. I can send you some seed once the fruits come on this season.
We are only 66 miles from Joplin.... why mail them? hahah lets do a seed exchange :)
Right on. ✊Come fall, we should get together and trade some of the seed we've saved!
Well, 66 miles apart. A seed exchange is very doable at that distance :D
I have seen wild ones in Arkansas. That is the first place I ever saw them. They were all over my uncle's horse pasture there!
Really? hmmm... so horses propagate them.......
Are you from Arkansas? I see you are in Indiana... i don't think i know anyone that lives in IN.
My aunt, uncle, and cousins all lived in northern Arkansas when I was 19-20ish. I went there to visit them a couple times.. Visits that lasted up to 3 months! lol.
Yeah I live in Indiana. It was 550 miles between here and there, but it was worth the mileage.
These are the one I have seeds for though
GASP
wow what a gorgeous flower.... that is something to be proud of right there... just amazing! Now im totally jealous!! LOL
The purple ones make better tasting fruit. You'd love them! The flowers are about 4 inches wide and very colorful! They are a vine, so plant some around something they can grow on :). The plants get loaded with flowers!
Those are beautiful! I’ve got the purple ones. When I find something I love, I want to collect every variety. But I wonder if they would cross pollinate and change over a few seasons...
I don't know. People do cross pollinate them to produce hybrids, but the hybrids can look stunning themselves!
I'll be they are. But I can't imagine they get any prettier than the one you posted.
Type in 'passiflora species' in google images. Those flowers are like gorgeous bursts of fireworks!
