Suburban Valkyrie

Busy, busy lately. Summer is flying by. Just a quick post today to show off the flourishing tomato plants. Yum.

First up, the Sweet 100s. This hybrid has grown like crazy - it is over 6 feet tall - and is now producing like crazy. Tomatoes are sweet, with just a touch of acidity, and the perfect size for snacking.







This heirloom tomato, Mr. Stripey, similarly is growing like mad. It is also more than 6 feet tall, and also is producing like mad. It has 14 tomatoes on it, and they each look to be at least half to three-quarters of a pound each.





Both of these indeterminate tomato plants are in the ground, in the second of my two 4-foot by 4-foot raised garden beds. They are far and away the tallest and most prolific growers in my garden so far this year.
