Ed Laivo of TomorrowsHarvest.com returns with another sweet treat of a winner for Fabulous Fruit Friday. It’s a donut-style nectarine, called Snack Time. What’s  "donut-style" mean? It’s refers to the flattened fruit, cultivars that were developed in Far East thousands of years ago. 

Debbie Flower, college horticulture professor (retired) and I stop and gawk at the seed racks at a local nursery. You’ll get a lot of great cucurbit (cucumber, squash, melons) planting tips when you eavesdrop on our conversation.

It’s all on episode 84 of the Garden Basics podcast, brought to you by Smart Pots and Tomorrows Harvest.  And we will do it all in under 30 minutes. Let’s go!
