When I was in plot my tomato plants were bigger and some of them full of green tomatoes. I am sure I will eat tomatoes when I will go there again in July if the plants survive without watering.

Silvery Fir tomato with its strange leaves had many tomatoes in every plant. The tomatoes are in the middle of the plant 10 cm above the soil. It was difficult to tie up the branches but ok this is my problem only because I late to tie up my tomato plants.

yellow taxi tomato Tomatoes are green and growing

Yellow-Taxi tomato. This year I was lucky and I have 2 plants! It was my last seeds and this variety has its story in my garden because I had seen this tomato in Patrick’s blog 2 years before and he ask me if I wanted seeds. I said yes and after Patrick ask me if I wanted other seeds also and he send me 4-5 seeds from many colorful tomato varieties. So for me, it’s a special tomato for this reason.

Well that’s the photos I have this moment. The good part is that this year I grow some new heirloom varieties so I will grow my small seed bank also.

  1. Hope they’ll live. If the weather with you is anything like with us they be more likely to drown!

  2. Your tomatoes are lovely. Mine are smaller, but they will grow soon. Are you worried about different varieties of tomatoes will cross-pollinate?

    @Heiko we had rain!!!! after the hot days rain came again. In my city we had a storm the other day and after that the weather it’s not so hot with some cloudy days. This is good for me bad for tourists. Well it’s funny but we have rain in weekends, only 1 weekend of June was hot and sunny :)

    @vrtlaricaana welcome! Now they must be bigger the photo is 2 weeks old. I’m sure your tomatoes will grow soon, it’s all about weather and the time you transplant them out. This year I transplant the tomatoes the first day of May, last year I was transplant them on May 20.
    I don’t think that tomatoes can cross-polinate so easy

  4. Nice… I must say, after checking out this post, it made me crave some good ol’ fried green tomatoes.

    I’ve had a great garden season this year, thanks to all the extra rain down here, so I have plenty of culinary options from my organic yield. Oh, have you ever tried fried green tomatoes? Here in the U.S., it is often considered a “southern tradition” but I think nowadays, many folks indulge in this seasonal side dish from all over the globe.

    Anyway, you have a nice gardening blog and I wish you the best of luck with your crops. ;)

  5. They look wonderful! Very healthy!

  6. Wow, I love looking at all the green tomatoes, and dreaming about the time when they all ripen. Beautiful, thanks for sharing!
