Our tomatoes are coming along
An early step in tomato growth
The first one to show up
This one is catching up
One of three sprouts we got from one onion
We had an onion that sprouted in a sack with some others. We went ahead and split it and planted three separate sprouts. We’ll see how this goes. We’ve read that when the green shoots begin to dry out and turn brown, or if the onion starts to flower, it is time to “harvest”. We’ll let you know in about three months or so…
Flower/pollination
Flower petals still hanging on the bottom
More possible starts here in addition to the two already growing
A little further along (yes it rained last night)
These two look like they are going to make it
These were the first two that showed up
This year we bought two plants instead of growing from seeds. The last photo is from a different plant from the other images. The header at the top of the page is actually of a “volunteer” plant that just showed up in the backyard. It seems to be doing well and will soon earn the right to have its own tomato cage.
