The once towering tomato plants had, after Hurricane Sally billowed through, collapsed, along with their stakes, into the grass that surrounded their previously confining bed. Tomato plants the Gardener could look squarely in the eye had seemed such a clever plan, but Nature had different ideas…and so did the Farthing Crowd.
The ridiculously tall plants produced ridiculously tiny fruit – wee spoon tomatoes perfect for wee spoon hands.
Bunty spent an hour in the bed, grateful fruit once out of reach was now easily gathered and placed in her basil-lined basket. It was the silver lining to that rather boisterous cloud, Sally.

We were so pleased to find Spoon Tomato plants earlier in the summer at https://www.dothannurseries.com/ The plants have thrived in the garden, despite their upending, and produce the tastiest little fruits with lots of zing!
