As promised here are some photos of tomatoes in last year's garden, 2014. It's a very pic-heavy blog post, but that's what you're here for anyways right?
 |
| Variegated Tomato in a planter with purple petunias. |
 |
| "Variegated" again, close up of it's amazing foliage. |
 |
| "Micro-Tom" first fruit ripening, what a wonderful tomato! |
 |
| First ripened "Micro-Tom" a very nice tangy flavour. |
 |
"Starfire Isis" beautiful striping coming down to a single point at the bottom of each fruit. Flavour was sweet, a very juicy tomato. |
 |
Not sure exactly which tomato this was... possibly "Golden Tiger" or "Dark Tiger" from J & L Gardens, Espanola New Mexico. |
 |
| "Indigo Rose" |
 |
| "Dancing with Smurfs" |
 |
| "Pastel Sleeves' |
 |
Some cool variegation right onto the fruit of the plant. Very interesting to watch grow! |
 |
| ...and another view. |
 |
| "Japanese Black Trifele" |
 |
| "Bosque Blue" |
 |
| More views of the "Variegated" tomato plant in action. |
 |
| Unripened "Painted Pink" |
 |
| "Muddy Waters" from Tom Wagner Tomato Seeds |
 |
| Not sure of this variety, again could be an experimental variety from J & L Gardens. |
 |
| "Zapotec Pleated Pink" Very heavy, dense fruit! |
 |
| "Lucky Heart" |
 |
An Example of how tall indeterminate varieties can get, this one grew to about 8-9ft. |
 |
"Tlacolula" lots of plant growth to this practically wild type tomato. |
 |
| "Striped Roman" |
 |
| "Indigo Rose" cross section. |
 |
| "Painted Pink" prepping for consumption. |
 |
"First Mate" It's hard to tell from this photo, but this tomato really has a nice blueist-grey-green skin to it. |
 |
| "Pastel Sleeves" |
 |
| "Starfire Isis" |
 |
| Random tomatoes ripening on the window ledge. |
 |
| Oven roasted tomato sauce preparations. |
 |
| Really brings out that tangy delicious flavour perfect for sauces and cooking. |
You'll have to excuse the last few photos taken from my cell phone, not sure why I didn't bring out the SLR, but I got the pictures anyways. Trust me - 2015 is an Nikon SLR only year.
 |
| "Blonde Boar" and "Zebra Rita" among these varieties. |
 |
| "Esmeralda Golosina" |
 |
| "???" but AMAZING. |
 |
| "Pineapple Blues" or "Wildcard Blues" |
 |
| All purple "Blue Beauty" |
 |
| They almost look black! |
 |
| "Blue Ambrosia" |
 |
| "Snow Cherry" next to "Blue Beauty" |
