A garden-grown tomato, sliced and laid across a grilled hamburger . . . Sweet, plump cherry tomatoes in a crisp, green salad . . . Sauce made from fresh tomatoes, ladled over a steaming bowl of pasta . . . Spicy tomato salsa . . . Savory tomato soup . . . Is there any single vegetable as mouth-watering as the tomato? And yet, as thousands of people—tired of mushy, half-green, and tasteless tomatoes bought from supermarkets—have discovered, much more is involved in growing your own than simply putting a plant or two in the ground and expecting to harvest luscious tomatoes a few weeks later. William D. Adams draws on more than thirty years’ experience to provide a complete, step-by-step guide to success in the tomato patch. Growing good tomatoes requires a gardener’s attention to a variety of factors, and Adams begins by explaining the basics of soil preparation, planting, feeding, caging, and watering. He also outlines the pros and cons of standard, hybrid, heirloom, and cherry varieties, sharing tips about old favorites and suggesting new varieties. After the tomatoes are chosen, planted, and thriving under his tutelage, Adams prepares growers for the insects, diseases, and other visitors they are likely to encounter, warning that "gardeners are not the only ones that love tomatoes." He ends by offering a few words about “tomato kin folk” (peppers, eggplants, tomatillos, and potatoes), along with a source list of selected suppliers. Liberally sprinkled with the author’s easy humor and illustrated throughout with excellent photographs, The Texas Tomato Lover’s Handbook has everything you’ll need to assure a bumper crop, year after year.

From CHAPTER I. HISTORICAL NOTES. Tomato, botanically known as Lycopersicum esculentum, is a native of the tropical parts of South America, from whence the Spaniards originally introduced it into Europe in the sixteenth century. Formerly the fruits were commonly called Love Apples. This name is said to have been applied to the fruits because our forefathers conceived the idea that they possessed the power of exciting lovable feelings within the human breast. The name we now apply to the fruits is derived from the Spanish word "Tamate." The Tomato belongs to the natural order Solanace�, and is therefore a near relative of the Potato, which originally came from the same country. If one of the round fruits called "Potato Apples" be culled from potato haulm in summer and cut open, and its structure compared with the fruit of the Tomato, it will be seen that the two are practically alike. There is, however, this difference: the fruit of the potato is poisonous, whereas that of the Tomato is wholesome. The Tomato is said to have been first introduced into England in 1596. For a long time after its introduction its merits as a food were very little appreciated; in fact, it was regarded merely as a curiosity. On the Continent, however, it was held in high esteem, the Italians especially being exceedingly partial to its use as food. Gerard, a sixteenth-century writer, .alludes to the "pomum amoris" (or Love Apple) as growing in his garden. He says: "Apples of love do growe in Spaine, Italie, and such hot countries, from whence myself have received seedes for my garden, where they do increase and prosper." This appears to be the earliest reference to the Tomato in our gardening literature."....
