Maters

Since I did not photograph them, I forgot to mention the tomatoes I planted yesterday.

Several years ago, I tried an experiment with miniature trees. Having started with six, I am now down to three, and the three remaining pots received asters last fall (which have resurrected themselves this spring) and tomato plants.

Sweet Olive - a grape tomato hybrid that is supposed to be both prolific and tasty. (I care more about the latter than the former.)

Health Kick - a plum-shaped tomato that is supposed to have 50% more antioxidants than most tomatoes. Can you spell lycopene?

Patio - bred for container gardens, producing 2" round fruit.

Three tomato plants, three shapes, three sizes. Hopefully, they all will be delicious.
