Red Currant and White Currant Have Tomatoes!


Red Currant and White Currant have new tomatoes!

We're especially proud of Red Currant. When purchased, it was yellow, tall, and very root bound. We removed all the tomato buds and planted deeply. It didn't look good for quite some time but now it's a very dark green and growing like mad. The only problem is that it seems to be growing out rather than up, but we'll take that issue over where this plant started.

White Currant was planted in a strawberry pot lined with a trash bag. It was an experiment by my wife and it has worked spectacularly. The plant is very happy.

A Sweet Olive is definitely maturing as well as a Sweet 100. We may have the first harvest by the end of the week.
