Hi. Biscombe kindly set me some seeds of Micro Tom, billed as ' the smallest tomato in the world'. (I have a tiny garden, remember.) Anyway I planted a few seeds on 24 February and they all germinated well on my kitchen windowsill. Since then the plants have grown and they must be about 3-4 inches high now. And guess what? Yesterday I noticed the first flower truss! ;D

That looked so amazing I googled it for more information - and apparently they only get to about 7" high max!!

Really, Ellkebe? Bless their cotton socks! I'm going to grow them in my window box then with some Greek Basil and Red Ruben Basil I reckon. :)
