Sweet 100s

- Thursday, June 30, 2011

2EEFDBBE-4362-4b58-88C6-9825BAD2BB9A A co-worker who left our contract recently didn't make much of an impact on my life except for the fact that he recommended Sweet 100s tomatoes for the local climate. They do well in the sun and heat of a Houston summer and aren't so picky about soil and watering. Well, he was right. The Sweet 100s are taking over. They're climbing everywhere. James and Ruby had to put a sawhorse under them to prop them up.

They're happily winding around all the other plants in the bed.

The Celebrity tomatoes are still hanging in there, but they're fighting an uphill battle against the Sweet 100 juggernaut.
