Mike's Wild Cherry Tomato

Tomatoes have been a bit of a disappointment this year. The harvest has been less than normal and shorter than normal. Not that I'm complaining since other crops like peppers, lettuce, beets and carrots have been much better than average this year.

A variety of tomato that has done well was one that I didn't even plant this year. Mike's Wild Cherry is an heirloom variety with very small, but very tasty fruit. I planted a couple dozen of Mike's Wild Cherry last year. At the end of the season I pulled up the old plants but in several spots the tomatoes reseeded and sprouted this spring. I left a half dozen plants grow to maturity and they have been producing like crazy.
