Remember in the summer of 2012 when a tomato plant started growing in my rose garden? And by the time it was done,\u00a0I had picked over 8,000 tomatoes? Well it’s back! If you’re new here, listen to this: I did not plant it. I did not feed it. I don’t know where it came from. It just started growing in between my roses and never stopped. The following year it didn’t come back so I thought that was it. Then about 3 months\u00a0ago we noticed it coming up between the roses but it looked pretty small and we didn’t expect it to survive. Here’s what we discovered back in December…<\/p>\n

Now, less than four months later, it’s grown into the roses on both sides and well over the top of the fence. It’s \u00a0ten feet across and taller than I am. Look at this photo taken today…<\/p>\n

And it’s already loaded with tomatoes…<\/p>\n

It’s crazy! But\u00a0here’s something even more crazy: It’s in a different spot! I know my roses and it’s about five feet over from where it grew the first time. And it’s growing incredibly fast. As if that’s not enough, these tomatoes were the best I’ve ever tasted. They are large cherry tomatoes, organic of course, and as sweet a tomato as I’ve ever had. I’ll keep posting the progress of this crazy tomato plant and counting the ones I pick, not counting the ones eaten by\u00a0the\u00a0mangy rat-faced, no-good, low-life, beady-eyed, scum-sucking, tomato-stealing squirrels!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
