All right now this is one of my favorite things that you all do and that is when you kind of combine two things that we definitely want this is a four-piece set it’s called the Capra salad tomato and basil Garden live plants so you’re going to get two of the Rucker passion basil
Plants and then two of the Mountain Man tomato plants on this three easy pays at $833 these are on sale you know when I originally pre my cards these were not on sale so I was thrilled these are on sale they’re now $24.98 two huge heavy producers and
Tomato plants and then two of your basil plants so that you can go to town with this that’s all right my friend that’s right well I’m just going to wait for my brother to start slicing so that I can start eating but Pat nothing is better
In my opinion than going out in a hot summer day picking a juicy fresh Ruby Red Tomato right off the vine and honestly just sprinkling a little bit of salt excuse me Dev I’m going to get you’re hungry I guess it’s Lun totally put some pepper on for you thank you
Very much there’s truly nothing better than doing this yeah so true M oh my God it’s so juicy and sweet and that’s what makes this collection so special and then you pair that I’m just going to you know what love little Basil Leaf throw it in my mouth pay with that tomato
I’m literally in heaven this is my favorite snack all summer long I’m not kidding I eat Capra salads day in and day out and now you can grow them with ease in the containers you don’t need a whole lot of space Excuse me while I
Finish my bite and this is what you can expect these are the Mountain Man beef steak tomatoes what’s a mountain man oh these are beef steak Mountain Man beef steak tomatoes these have some of the richest beef steak flavor right off the vine when they’re nice and warm there’s
Nothing like it these are 8 to 10 o beautiful tomatoes and each plant can produce up to you know 10 to 12 pounds worth of tomatoes so one collection you’re easily going to be feeding a family of three to four people and with the basil it just keeps on going and
Going but what I also love is that these mountain men are super fast producing plants you’re going to be eating these beautiful tomatoes in as little as 45 days and if you’ve grown tomatoes before that’s like you might think that you misheard me because most Tomatoes take
80 90 even 100 days so you’re going to be eating way faster than Joe and Jane down the block and your tomatoes are going to be way more flavorful and then you have that beautiful Rutter’s passion basil which is some of the largest leav basil sweetest flavor developed over in
New Jersey by uh ruers University um pult uh group and then I’m going to pour some just a little bit of pesto on this tomato de will you slice that up for us I’m going to have another snack Pat you’re welcome to join in on anything
You might want I’m going to steal the um salt and you know what if you’re used to eating tomatoes from the from the grocery store you haven’t eaten a good tomato oh yeah there’s nothing there’s no comparison there’s just a a in my opinion a sense of self-satisfaction to
Grow it but to know that nobody sprayed this on it no you know you can use that organic potting soil and now you can get these wonderful big thick juicy Tomatoes yep and grow in a container so you don’t necessarily have to put them in the ground right absolutely yes enjoy
Yourself let me show you guys so I’m going to come over here and I have this nice this is about an 18in container and this is one of our tomato plants it’s super easy to grow uh let me just hold on one sec do a little potting demo how
Does that taste it tasted while he walks away I’m going to go ahead and put some dressing on my Capra salad here I mean it’s salad it’s tomatoes on pasta those of you can check that out the only thing we can’t you know ship to your door is the mozzarella unfortunately maybe maybe
I’ll become a cheese maker one year but until then at least you can grow your own basil and tomato and like Pat said you know exactly where it’s coming from there nothing better than that ex and I think it’s a beautiful thing to teach your kids your grandkids your nieces
Your nephews Deb we’re going to go over there so walk us through what we need to do tomatoes I have a nice 15 18 in container now I’m going to be using our potting mix which you can find on qvc.com our natural and organic potting mix this is perfect we’ll ship it right
To your door free of charge and when we’re getting our Tomatoes planted let me show you one one little trick I’m going to dig a hole into my pot and normally we would most plants we would plant right at that same uh soil line but with the Tomato we’re actually going
To bury it even deeper so I’m going to bury it so that about a couple inches of that stem is actually underneath the soil I’ll Water it in and I’ll make sure to use my Roberta’s homegrown tomato plant food um a few times a month and
That’s going to help it to get all of the micronutrients macronutrients it needs so that you can go from this guy to this big plant behind us and is little as 45 days IM here’s my tip when you plant it put the cage on it cuz if
You wait you’re going to end up breaking it absolutely very true all right and if You’ never grown tomatoes before what are you waiting for all you need is a container you know you don’t have to start with seeds like so many other people do you’re going to be getting
That head start because we’re shipping to you guys already established plants that are going to be growing and producing fruit for you guys in as little as 45 days and you can expect dozens and dozens of these large 8 to 10 ounz beef steak tomatoes from every
Plant so we’re talking pounds and pounds for your pizzas your pastas your salads your Capra salads uh you know make your own pesto because these rutr passion pest or basil is it is the best yeah mhm all right time little all we’re just we’re just if you’re not hearing
Anything it’s cuz we’re all EA that’s what makes this collection so special I love that you mentioned Pat sharing this experience with your kids there is something so satisfying when you go out and you pluck that tomato off your own Vine it’s a little warm still from the
Sunshine honestly sometimes I eat it like an apple right off the vine my dad used to do that yep absolutely and now we’re pairing these delicious sweet beef steak Mountain B beef steak tomatoes with what my brother was describing those rut basil which has been bred to
Be the sweetest basil I literally ate one right off the vine just put the leaf right in my mouth and it was delicious I love the smell of B and one thing I really want to impress is that when we’re growing these at home you can rest assured you know you’re not putting
Pesticides on them we all know how expensive one pound of organic tomatoes are at the grocery store and when you consider you’re going be growing you know 10 12 lbs of tomatoes per plant this is the best value you could possibly think of grow these Tomatoes
Many times you don’t need more than two of beef steak tomatoes two two for me and my wife definitely enough and we’ll still have enough to give to our neighbors don’t be afraid to can them you know make sauces I was telling my uncle lick our dad cuz Devon is my
Brother he still has tomato sauce from a couple years ago and in the middle of winter to eat homegrown fresh tomato sauce like there’s nothing better 400 of you already dialed in um you know our garden season is soon coming to an end sadly here on QVC so take advantage cuz
Every time they bring us Tomatoes they sell so quickly all right oh wait I’m good with this it’s time for time
