These are some tommies I picked this morning. They are from plants that I planted early in the year but the neighbours cows had a feast just as they started bearing then we had that really cold snap so the plants are only just starting to bear again.


There are romas, and some small san marzanos that didn't recover well and I will be pulling out, as well as some green zebras. GZs are one of the toughest and heaviest producing tomato plants that I have grown, they just don't seem to know when to give up.

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing not to use it in a fruit salad.

I picked one of your GZ yesterday Gail the only one, as all the other were riddled with caterpillars Tony pulled the two plants out, its still a little green as in age also in colour but its quite happy sitting in a basket with all those red volunteer's that we have been picking the past week.

Actually they are all doing very well, I wonder if its because they are growing right next to the thorny roses.. Anyway its good to see someone up here is getting a few tommys..
