Tomato Siblings

As you may know I started my tomatoes from seed this year and ended up with 21 baby tomato plants, way more than my small Brooklyn fire escape could handle. So, I gave most of them away to co-workers and friends who have been sending me pictures of their plant's progress. It's pretty amazing that two plants from the same batch of seeds can look so different from one another! It really shows how adaptable plants are to their growing conditions. Here are some of my tomato plant's siblings.

First up, Adam in Crown Heights, Brooklyn:



Chiara in Williamsburg:


Colin's plant somewhere in the tri-state area:


Tiffany's on the Upper West Side:


Reilly's in Park Slope:



And Liz's GIANT in Long Island City (she's 5'9"):



Overall everyone's tomato plants seem to be happy and growing. Now all we need are some tomatoes...
