Husk tomatoes now called tomatillos are back in fashion, a green fruit from Physalis ixocarpa that thrives in heat and self sows. Ground cherry and jade plant tips follow, with seed sowing advice, germination notes, and a question on rooting geranium cuttings.
The writer recalls the American chestnut Castanea dentata once abundant in the North, devastated by a blight around 1904, and contrasts it with resistant Castanea mollis.

He also shares gardening tips from Park Seed Co. catalogues and his gardening aspirations.
