Finally! In a lovely Jungian twist of synchronicity, the cherry tomatoes were, indeed, the first to lose their cherries. The Yellow Boy plants are just starting to turn as you can see with the triplets below. They’ve been on my watchlist for weeks – I’ve got a special salsa planned just for them and their jalapeño neighbors.
Weeds? What weeds? Oh, just pretend you don’t see them. I do.
I envision the one above luxuriously resting atop a fresh lettuce leaf draped across a freshly grilled burger. I haven’t a plan yet for the ones below but I’m sure something will occur to me. As Roy Scheider famously said in Jaws, “You’re gonna need a bigger fridge.” Or something like that.
Author’s Note: I’ve tagged this post both fruit and vegetables in an effort to satisfy both purists and those less hindered by rigid conformity to plant taxonomic conventions.
