Extreme Tomato Plants


We thought we should document our monster tomato plants. We planted 5, and they all survived and thrived (though I must say that lots of other things we planted didn't fare so well, like the okra, brussel sprouts, acorn squash, and sugar snap peas). So the tomato plants topped 6 feet, then started growing outward when the growth of the tomatoes weighed them down (they were all cherry tomatoes, by the way - two varieties).

And just look at these beasts now! They are all tangled together and taking over the lawn, not to mention overshadowing the red bell peppers. But boy are they delicious!

Holy Cow! Those are tomato trees! I bet they're yummy. I can't believe Miya will eat them; that's usually an acquired taste!
