Rogue Tomato


Harvesting tomatoes a couple of weeks ago, I dropped a couple near the back door. Karen saw a Chipmunk munching these treats on the back steps. Last weekend I noticed a tomato sprout in the gravel next to the steps. Just shows how hearty plants can be. Dropped in rock with little soil during fall weather, this tomato sprout looks strong. Of course we will have a frost long before it can flower and bear fruit, but this just goes to show that you don't always have to sow seeds during the traditional timeline for planting.
