I like the attitude 'what the heck, I'll give it a try!).<br />I have redcurrant just planted in the ground, no need for acid soil. They can be very prolific with pretty strings of flowers and then currants. A nice fruit once your taste-buds get used to them (rather sharp) I eat loads in the summer.Lou@RainbowChardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01435858511588433002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4544358755192295336.post-51459669699545444012016-05-15T10:54:10.430-07:002016-05-15T10:54:10.430-07:00I think we all have a problem with impulse purchas...I think we all have a problem with impulse purchases when visiting an interesting garden center. I stopped off today to pick up some parsley and wound up with some Black Cherry tomatoes I may or may not have room for.David Veltenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07710293718143454000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4544358755192295336.post-69512171315600187762016-05-15T07:13:46.315-07:002016-05-15T07:13:46.315-07:00I planted a red and a white currant plant a couple...I planted a red and a white currant plant a couple of years ago (in the ground) and they have grown like weeds. I think they are pretty easy to grow, all things considered. I added a pink one this year based on Daphne's recommendation. You have 40 pepper plants? I always put some of my extras in containers, though sometimes keeping up with the watering is a chore.Dave @ HappyAcreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03441364543023807886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4544358755192295336.post-81709860430229451432016-05-14T17:56:38.916-07:002016-05-14T17:56:38.916-07:00OK, well if the bitter melon at least looks pretty...OK, well if the bitter melon at least looks pretty when growing, I won't feel so bad ...Susiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10354350096358468967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4544358755192295336.post-21481129116170115242016-05-14T16:02:58.303-07:002016-05-14T16:02:58.303-07:00I don't have any advice to give about the frui...I don't have any advice to give about the fruiting plants but can say that the Hyacinth Bean is well worth growing as an ornamental, it's really pretty. And bitter melon is pretty too if you aren't as impulsive about actually eating it. :-)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812702328134261533noreply@blogger.com
