We have some tomato plants because my husband threw some seeds from a fresh tomato into some dirt and they seem to be thriving. They are thriving because I'm having nothing to do with them whatsoever and am leaving it up to him.Shelly - Tropical Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00464868349672755774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-52485729908260715572011-09-17T10:29:01.220+10:002011-09-17T10:29:01.220+10:00Aren't home grown tomatoes one of the lovelies...Aren't home grown tomatoes one of the loveliest things to photograph?

My tomato plants...Oh my, you tomatoes look awesome! My tomato plants are just starting to flower - hopefully I rescued them from falling over due to lack of stake just in time. We have a tiny head of cauliflower growing. I've never tasted home grown cauli, so I'm really excited. The snow peas don't make it the kitchen. And the beetroot and carrots, well, dwarfdom doesn't quite describe it. Then there's the scarecrow, possum netting, the beer traps and co-planting. It's not saving us money yet, but growing our own veggies has certainly been an adventure.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06035359686891598881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-54069647424308661972010-12-17T18:30:58.014+11:002010-12-17T18:30:58.014+11:00Those tomatoes look AMAZING ...
