This tomato plant.
This plant, has survived a really rough life. We planted some tomato seeds back in the summer of 2013, upon some bad advice, we planted them close to the house so they could get full sun. Little did I know, that would burn the plants up. This is one last tomato plant that we were able to save. We had to dig it up, re-pot it, and hope for the best. All winter ( here in Florida, its never really what I consider cold. ) it just sat there and straggled about in the pot. Some green leaves and some yellow, we weren't quite sure it was even going to make it, let alone produce fruit. about 3 weeks ago some tiny yellow flowers appeared, and low and behold, we now have at least 4 tomatoes with more on the way.
This all goes to show you that with a little bit of persistence, some faith, decent soil and fair conditions, good things do happen. Now, I am waiting for the right time for Ryan to pick them and we can enjoy them in a salad, by themselves, or on a sandwich.
Hooray Tomatoes!
