I took this picture on my birthday, October 14th, last year.
The tomatoes are sitting on my custom made patio table. Member id ilg49, Robert & Jessica, are the seed sellers on eBay that are using my photo to sell Indigo Rose tomato seed. Of course You Know, it is neither rare or heirloom as they advertise.

Dragon Tongue fresh tender snap beans. Close your eyes, and taste one of the best fresh snap beans. Prepare as you would any green beans.
