kaberett-- no wait that's a lie, I also investigated an apple tree. (Unremarkable eating apples.)
But! Tomatoes!
Pictured varieties: Purple Ukraine, Blue Fire, misc green stripey, Orange Banana, Moneymaker. Buried so you can't see it is a Feo di Rio Gordo. I did not get the whole rainbow I was aiming for this year (alas the Yellow Pearshaped all failed, as did the Known green stripey), but I'm nonetheless pleased!

Date: 2025-08-28 12:49 pm (UTC)On the one hand this seems most likely and on the other I saved the seed from a commercially purchased tomato that I don't entirely trust to not have had access to things not available for consumer purchase! And all my known-provenance Green Zebra failed this year so I couldn't do a side-by-side of the plants :-(

Date: 2025-08-28 12:50 pm (UTC)Taste: better than typical supermarket but as Real Seeds says they're not particularly exciting, they're really for the colour.
Yield: no complaints!
