When should I plant heirloom tomatoes?

I live in Zone 8 and I wanted to grow some heirloom tomatoes on my patio this year. When should I plant them (seeds, not little seedling plants) and what varieties would do best in my zone in a pot?

In zone 8 it looks like your last frost date is somewhere between Feb. 28 and March 30 depending on where you are located. The best way is to call your county Master Gardeners (at your cooperative extension) to find out when you should plant the tomatoes outdoors. This would be a wonderful source as to what would grow best in your area of zone 8. They might even be able to recommend where to buy plants. Our county master gardeners grow several varieties in the greenhouse and offer them for sale in the spring.

There are many varieties of heirloom tomatoes. It really depends on your tastes. Are you going to eat the tomatoes or cook them? Do you want large ones or little ones.Tomato Bob’s (online) has a wonderful catalog which describes hundreds of varieties. I’m sure there are many sources of seeds. If you decide to start the plants from seed, you may want to start it indoors to get a jump on the season.

Good luck and happy gardening!

HEIRLOOM TOMATO: Heirloom Tomatoes are just what their name implies. They have been handed down, through generations of farmers and gardeners, from family member to family member. Many of these tomato varieties are known to have thrived since the 1800?s. Unlike hybrids, they are not selectively bred for taste or appearance. They are open-pollinated, growing ?true to type? plants, like their pre...

Heirloom seeds are more than the promise of next summer's crookneck squash or jewel-colored zinnias. They're living antiques handed down from one generation to the next, a rich inheritance of flavor and beauty from long ago and, often, far away. They are sometimes better adapted to pests and harsh conditions than many modern varieties and often simply smell or taste better. Gardening with Heirloom Seeds serves as a resource for gardeners, cooks, and plant lovers of all levels of expertise who want to know more about finding, sharing, and propagating the seeds of heirloom flowers, fruits, and vegetables. In these beautifully illustrated pages, Lynn Coulter describes fifty old-fashioned species that have their roots in the past, from the Frenchman's Darling, a flowering herb whose seeds were pocketed by Napoleon Bonaparte when he invaded Egypt in 1798, to Snow White beets, an old Dutch favorite that will not stain the cook's fingers red. Most of the plants included here will grow all across the United States; a few are best suited for warmer climates. The text is sprinkled with practical advice from heirloom gardeners and lists sources for finding the seeds of many old varieties. Because it also provides room for notes, Gardening with Heirloom Seeds can be used year after year and can become an heirloom in its own right--a personal journal to pass along to the next generation of gardeners.

Saving seeds is a time-honored tradition ; one that more and more gardeners are rediscovering.

A remarkable collaboration of art and science celebrating the diversity of seeds. An orchid seed may be minuscule, so small and light that one gram contains more than 7.5 million seeds. In contrast, a single-seeded Seychelles seed is a nut weighing up to 20 pounds. All seeds have the same purpose -- to travel through time and space until they reach the right place at the right moment to create a new plant. This large-format book melds art and science in an authoritative examination of the design and function of seeds. Special light and scanning electron microscopy are used to obtain astonishing images of diverse seeds at various states of maturity. Pods, pouches, keys, nuts and other vehicles of dispersal are explained and illustrated. These time capsules of life for plants familiar and strange are presented in minute, beautiful detail. Microphotographs of the tiniest seeds and extraordinarily detailed cutaway images of larger seeds are combined with text that explains the formation and maturation of seeds and describes how they find their way to becoming a copy of the parent plant. Literary references to plant reproduction are featured as well, along with early botanical illustrations. Authoritative and richly illustrated, Seeds offers a fascinating and intimate look at the remarkable reproductive process of plants. (20071220)

Soul singer Martin Sexton releases his best work yet, the highly anticipated seventh record, Seeds. The troubadour says no thanks to several label offers and remains fiercely independent on his own. This album ranges like an American road-trip with stops in the regions of gospel, country and western, and rock, crafted with keen pop sensibility. Seeds oozes with that soul ... infused with spiritual hunger and child-like joy, all delivered with Sexton's fervent vocals. Sexton's raucus rendition of the late Billy Preston's Will It Go Round In Circles rocks with fuzz bass and Leslie vocal shimmer. Sexton along with Crit Harmon combine traditional rhythm sections with anything from minnow buckets and whiskey jugs to a guitar as drum kit to frame the tracks with unique, timeless production.

Situated beautifully at the intersection of Michael Pollan, Ruth Reichl, and Barbara Kingsolver, Heirloom is an inspiring, elegiac, and gorgeously written memoir about rediscovering an older and still vital way of life. Fourteen years ago, Tim Stark was living in Brooklyn, working days as a management consultant, and writing unpublished short stories by night. One evening, chancing upon a Dumpster full of discarded lumber, he carried the lumber home and built a germination rack for thousands of heirloom tomato seedlings. His crop soon outgrew the brownstone in which it had sprouted, forcing him to cart the seedlings to his family’s farm in Pennsylvania, where they were transplanted into the ground by hand. When favorable weather brought in a bumper crop, Tim hauled his unusual tomatoes to New York City’s Union Square Greenmarket, at a time when the tomato was unanimously red. The rest is history. Today, Eckerton Hill Farm does a booming trade in heirloom tomatoes and obscure chile peppers. Tim’s tomatoes are featured on the menus of New York City’s most demanding chefs and have even made the cover of Gourmet magazine.
