Tomato recap

Before I forget everything from this summer....let me record for history's sake the failures and successes of the great tomato adventure. About half the plants died -- the Yellow Pear, the Golden Jubilee (after giving us a couple of lovely yellow tomatoes), the Big Boy.

The grape tomato in the upside down container produced well and all summer. Tasty, too. The Better Boy, out front where there was more sun, produced a lot of tomatoes but their flavor and texture were less than ideal. The Celebrity in the self watering container produced a lot of tomatoes and they were very juicy and flavorful. The Celebrity in the ground didn't get enough sun and produced just one fruit, late in the season. The heirlooms (Brandywine and Cherokee Purple) didn't produce much but got to be 15' tall -- they were in the back, just reaching for the sun. The Mr Stripey produced a little but not much.

One other plant whose name I forget lived but never fruited.

Next year, more Celebrity plants!
