2023 tomatoes in the ground

[amyinowasso]

My daughter planted the tomatoes for me yesterday. They will probably only have cheap cages this year. Husband and I compromised with 12 plants. I hope to put more somewhere else, but at least there are these 12. Black cherry, vorlon,Cherokee carbon, Gary 'O Sena, Indian stripe, Ramapo, Paul Robeson, Louisiana Gulf State, large red cherry, atomic fusion, Jersey Devil, Grandma Suzy's beefsteak. I have some Heidi, a bison and a celebrity I would like to plant, but that might not happen. Some of these were looking bad and interestingly, it was the hybrids that looked diseased. The potato leafed plants looked the best. Atomic fusion was a freebie, purple stems and dark leaves.
