Just one plant

 We got one Yellow Pear tomato plant this year. 

It grew! 



It has many green tomatoes, we are looking forward to them ripening:) I will have to get the ladder out again this year to harvest them.

I've been really hungry for a REAL tomato, but the local produce stand hasn't opened yet. And the tomatoes in the store just haven't been as good a a fresh local tomato.

That is one happy tomato plant!

Wow! It sure DID grow! My friend Nita in Spokane has two cherry tomatoe plants that are higher than their roof! What's the deal with tomatoes these days? It's like the Jolly Green Giant has his own line of veggies!
Blessings,

Wow - very impressive!

We are not doing well in the tomato game this year. Our favorite Amish backyard nursery closed. We bought plants at another which are not doing well. I have purchased a third plant.

We went 30 days without rain and had to use city water. Then, when we did get rain, we got large hail and that didn't help either.

This is going to be one of those years where the cost per tomato is going to be triple that of store bought tomatoes . . .

That's a happy tomato plant. Ours are shooting up too, and setting fruit. It might ba a good tomato year.

I've never heard of a pear tomato. I'll have to look around for seeds for next year. Our tomatoes are slow this year. The plants are growing great but there aren't a lot of tomatoes yet.

That is one amazing tomato plant. My daughter plants a yellow cherry tomato plant that has the sweetest tomatoes I've ever tasted...but I can't remember what it's called right now. Sounds like yours are really good too!

My Grandma used to grow yellow pear tomatoes. I loved them fresh from the garden, still warm from the sun!

Guess you could try fried green tomatoes.

That's quite the tomato you have. If you only have one plant it might as well be a productive one!!

It clearly loves that spot in your yard. The height of it is amazing!

Get a ladder and take a pail with you. It is one good plant to give you lots to eat. I didn't get any volunteer plants this year because I tilled the soil.
