I just succumbed to the lure of the Baker Creek Heirloom Seed catalog and ordered $ 50 worth of exotic red lettuces, sweet peas, Italian and Thai basil, cilantro, chives, purple tomatillos, multi-colored hot and sweet peppers, «black» cherry tomatoes, plum tomatoes, white Japanese eggplant, yellow Indian cucumbers, golden beets, and I think some purple string beans.

For variety, I also added a pot of red lettuce, cabbage, pansies and violas. (deeplysouthernhome.com)
