It's Old Ivory Egg!

Last night I took a closer look at the tomatoes while adjusting the branches to lay over the cages where appropriate. The color for Purple Russian does look better. The backyard Zhezha looks like it may have even grown. Arkansas Traveler is so tall, it's nearly as tall as Yellow Brandywine – Platfoot Strain. Salisaw Cafe is the best plant grown from seed at the moment.

Oh yeah, I keep forgetting to mention that the new growth on the Patio container plant looks greener than the rest of the plant. It is looking better.

Three more plants got paper mulch. The front yard is done and one tomato plant in the back got paper mulch.


The other news is that (sigh) it looks like I have one more tomato seedling to plant. My wife kept the OIE/Tula seedling until she heard from the person that grew it from seed, and gave away the rest at her work. Later in the day, the seedling lady chimed in to say she's almost certain that it's Old Ivory Egg. My wife says “Plant it!”. So we discussed some planting location possibilities.

We were both tired, though, and went to bed early.
