So true...if a deep freeze presents they will need extra protection. Sadly all we have is rain and more rain, with one grey day after another. So little sun. When spring finally arrives it may be too hot all at once. These climate extremes are a big challenge.congrats!

On May 17th we harvested the first ripe tomato if the season-- a lovely yellow Honey Nail cherry. Just one ripe fruit, and it was delicious. These plants have been outdoors for months, and for the past several weeks our weather has been rather cool. I suspect that once we get some heat they will really take off. My goal is to save lots of seed of this rare early cultivar.

I grew Honey Nail in 2023 I think it was, such a great little cherry tomato. The production borders on obscene, even in a pot! Love the name too.

Agreed-- and the yellow gives a lovely pop of colour in salads. Next year I may just see if I can push the plants for even earlier fruiting. It's a remarkable cultivar!
