It’s been 2 months since we planted our one and only tomato plant, and all we can think is C’Mon Dude!
All around us patches with various types of small tomatoes: cherry, grape and pear – all of them are starting to really bear fruit, and heaps of it. Whilst our plant is clearly healthy, and there is some fruit appearing, we can count on one hand the amount of tomatoes we’ll be able to eat over the next few weeks.
We’ll wait to see if this is a type which flowers much later in Summer of course, but if we’ve learnt one thing from this season (aside from not planting too much stuff) then it would be to consider planning short-to-long flowering combinations.

Our tomatoes, we hope.
