In late March we went to WalMart garden center to look at plants. They had a large table full of tomatoes marked 50 cents each. No labels, you got what you got. We bought four. The first three were round red ones, maybe celebrity? Yesterday I picked this one. It more than fills dr's hand. It weighed in at exactly one pound. A WalMart 50 cent tomato ( photo / image / picture from dooley's Garden ) dooley's small garden seems to be providing the vegetables we need for each days dinner. Chance appreciates the cucumbers. I did discover that the small fat yellow one is supposed to be short and leaving it to become long is a lesson in futility. Just enough for dinner ( photo / image / picture from dooley's Garden ) We picked the first fig off our misson fig tree. It's not a bad size for a tree that's not two feet tall yet. Brian loves figs, mostly the dried ones. There is another small fig but it probably won't get too much bigger. Our first fig ( photo / image / picture from dooley's Garden ) dooley
Thats a nice tomato for a 50 cent plant! Mine are just now turning red and have seen a few that are close to that size. Makes me hungry.
Bonus size for a tomato, bet it tasted great. Chance eats cucumbers? I suppose a dog needs her vegetables. The dinner veggies are looking good!! Jerry
Yum Yum! We just planted fig trees... so it'll be a few years before we get any. I think it's time for me to go see if my aunt needs any figs picked off her trees!
Your harvests just keep getting better and better. That is a good-looking tomato you ater showing in that first pic. One pound!--those types will be good for making juice or concentrate for canning. Yeah Dooley--looking good.
