Last week was another week of tomatoes from the community garden. The tomato plants on my balcony are on its last leg...I think. Maybe with the weather getting cooler it will pick up again. But after cutting off all the dead leaves it is looking quite...sad. The tomato plants in the community garden are still going strong, so I think I will still have a couple of tomato harvests to go. Here are some of the tomatoes that I harvested last week.

| Coeur de Boeuf tomatoes |
Very nice harvest but those Coeur de Boeuf are really interesting looking! How do they taste? Are they very meaty or runny inside?
ReplyDeleteThey taste really good! I was worried they'd taste bad, but they were good - they are pretty meaty.
DeleteThose are nice tomatoes, especially the Coeur de Boeuf. I'm with Jenny, curious about them. Tell us more.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are really interesting tomatoes. I've posted some more in my new post. Thanks for commenting!
DeleteI love the Coeur de Boeuf tomatoes. I chuckle every time I see them. They look like red garlic bulbs. Or mutant tomatoes.
ReplyDeleteThey do look like mutant tomatoes! But a pretty mutant one, LOL!
DeleteLove those tomatoes! I bet you've been feasting this week. Or have you been making sauce?
ReplyDeleteThanks! I have not been able to eat them all, so I have been freezing them. Thanks for commenting.
