As the sole survivor of the backyard blight my cherry tomato plant seems to want to make up for harvest deficit left behind by its not-as-resistant comrades.
I have not fertilized it and it only recives my daily dish water for nourishment - but it is putting out big time.
This is about an average daily take for the past week - rarely do these tasty mini-tomatos make it into a dish, instead I snack on them until there is none. Still it makes me grateful enough that I now venture out there at dusk with my slopping dishpan and stop to say thanks to my little plant, drooping heavy with fruit, before I shower it with the days gray water.
Maybe there is still hope for me as a gardener?
