late season


And still the tomatoes on this plant keep growing and ripening!  I intend to consume this one tomorrow - the last tomato to ripen was eaten by one of the landscapers.  At least, that's the only plausible answer to its disappearance - I think raccoons or squirrels would have marauded some of the greener ones, too. But this looks on the brink of perfection.  This plant has been going strong since the spring - quite amazingly, I grew it from a large beefsteak tomato that I cut in half one day, hoping to eat it for my lunch, and found that it had sprouted internally into a whole lot of tiny green tomato seedlings.  So I planted it, as a kind of experiment, and here we are.
