James, it was B-Day present from my DH. I came home and it was already installed. My son and my husband covered it in plastic later on to make a cold greenhouse. I set one batch of tomatoes at least a month earlier than the rest of them. It was April 6. We will see whether tomatoes in that bed start producing a month earlier or not.
This scaffolds are not cheap. For the present like that it is great. Much better then some jewelry that would be used few times. I would be happy to get another scaffold for my next B-D.

Gorgeous photos, as always, Ella!
They all looks like they are setting really well. I am excited to see how some of the lesser known varieties you are growing turn out! Cheers!

Thank you, Kelli and Vladimir.
Wanted to take pictures of a few small cucumbers. One of them was already about 2 inches: Long Japanese (Suyo). Few more small of different varieties. They were gone. I think squirrels got them. It was raining the last 3 days and a lot. It was not that they needed water. I have not picked a single cucumber yet. I do not like squirrels.

Beautiful tomatoes as usual. Do you ever have problems with early or late blight?

Xanadu (bl ,RL)
Name of that one may change. Seeds are from Marsha/Gigner2778. She is still working on that variety. They are looking nice. Beautiful stripes. Thanks for sharing, Marsha.
