This is one truss on a Mille Fleur plant in my greenhouse.

All the centiflors will usually produce bigger trusses than that too & pretty much all the fruit sets & ripens making it a particularly good type of tomato to grow if you like cherry size toms but have limited space to grow them.
It may be worth taking photos of them covered in ripe fruit too in case you decide to offer them at plant sales in the future, when people can see how many tomatoes you get from a single plant combined with the fact that they are fine growing outdoors they sell very well.

Good idea about the photo Baccyman, thanks.
I found that plants which had photos on the price tickets sold much quicker than others at our plant sale so I will do as you suggest.

I hope we like the taste of them!
