There's no doubt that I adore home-grown tomatoes. What could be better? Once they're in the ground, they're so easy to grow and the end results are the most delicious and flavorful (I might also mention they are completely mouth-watering) tomatoes ever. It's hard to even compare home-grown tomatoes to their store bought cousins. We have 10 tomato plants in our garden which means there's plenty to share - 2 people, even 2 tomato-loving people just can't keep up with the bounty that 10 plants produce! Here are some of the plants. I think tomatoes are gorgeous.

| an heirloom variety named ponderosa red - perfect for slicing |
 |
| these orange cherry tomatos are tart and sweet at the same time |
 |
| not quite ripe but beautiful |
 |
| the 2 in the middle are actually ripe - this cherry variety doesn't turn red |
 |
| this is a volunteer plant that I left to grow to see what we'd end up with and they are like a cross between a roma and a slicer! |
 |
| this is a new variety for our garden it's an heirloom called thessaloniki and it's a beautiful slicer |
 |
| the perfect roma-like tomato, this is named Juliet - very high yielding plants |
 |
| perhaps my favorite - the green zebra perfectly tart and sweet at the same time |
