WOW! Those are some great looking tomato plants you have there Whitewidower!!! Do you have plans for all those tomatoes? hehehe

Okay, you're probably going to laugh...and I'm almost embarrased (but curious)

I'm such a sucker for internet plants and seen this advertisement for 8' tomato trees! I read the bd news about them during the time I was waiting for them to be shipped, as everybody said they were crap! Tomatoes tasted bad, they didn't grow...etc, etc, etc! My sick little order came and I didn't get to them in a day and they withered and died! I wasn't upset and figured I just saved a good pot and soil!

But...My darling Man decided to buy some for me (maybe he thought I looked heartbroken or something - but I just think it was coincidence and a joke!). He gave them to me and of course, I had to plant them!!!! It's the thought that counts!

Well, I can see how they're going to grow to 8' as they've probably grown more than a foot in 2 weeks! I figure they were developed as seedlings next to a nuclear plant in who-knows-where!

Being a tomato afficienado like you are, have you ever heard of anything like this??? What I love about the catalog is that there are no photo's - just cartoonish looking illustrations! hahaha

Hey...if anything, they'll be a real conversation piece!
