That was a very good year! I managed to get a few in 2010, but not near the bumper crop of 2009. And last year? Maybe I had them in the wrong spot. Or maybe it was that long cold spring that lasted until mid-summer. Or maybe it was all the hollyhocks that sprouted up in front and that were so beautiful, I couldn't bear to chop down, even though they were shading the tomatoes. Let's just say 2011 was nothing to brag about in the tomato department (garlic, though - now that's a different story!). I'm looking forward to summer tomatoes about now and drooling over catalogs as we speak… Hi Walt – Note that this post was written in 2009. That was a very good year!
