Tomato Trees
Oh the sad state of my tomato plants. The two cherry tomatoes bit the dust a couple weeks ago but my large tomato bush was holding on by a thin thread. I had to cut away the majority of the diseased and dying branches leaving just a sad looking tree where a nice full bushy plant should have been.
Despite the miserable failure of growing tomato plants on the deck this year, my lone standing plant did bear a bit of fruit.
Behold, my entire tomato harvest:
These three tomatoes were the juiciest, sweetest, most delicious of their kind I've ever had. It was worth killing 3 plants to get these.
Next year I'm hoping for a better survival rate. I guess we'll see.
