Okay, now I was told by many people who grow this tomato---the proper pronunciation is stoo--PEECH--ka? Not like it's spelled. Is this not right? It is a garden staple for me and the earliest most reliable in our weather -pumping out 2 to 3 oz red toms until frost kills it. Btw, Love ya Cisco!!!

Hello Cisco, Now that the Daffodils are all done I have cut the flower stem off leaving the green leaves in place. I have folded the greenry over and tied it with an extra green leaf. Holding the plant in a bundle till it all turns yellow. I seem to remember this was done (by my Grandma) to help the bulb get the food it needed. Is this a good idea or an old wives tale? Sure looks nice and neat in the garden. Love to know what you think. Thank you for reading this, Susanne
