We always put in a few tomato plants every year, a couple in the garden amongst the rose bushes and a couple in pots. I must admit, that although a bumper crop is not assured us each year, even the few tomatoes harvested (whatever the variety) are infinitely better than the plastic ones sold in the greengrocer.
So, off to plant the tomatoes, with lots of organic fertiliser and a good supporting frame, hoping for a good crop for the Christmas salads!

This coming Christmas? In a month's time? Never!.
ReplyDeleteThose are some healthy looking tomato flowers. We didn't get much of a tomato crop this year. Looking forward to when our drought is over.
ReplyDeleteI am not a terrible gardener. Most fruit, vegetables and herbs grow well enough in my back yard. Except tomatoes :( The tomatoes never ever seem to be big, beautiful and deliciously tomato-smelling.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting how we are in different seasons! Pretty signs and also the tomato flowers!
ReplyDeleteI've planted some both in pots and a few in the ground this year...so here's hoping and fingers crossed!
