Giant Tomato Tree from Gardeners' Choice

[Anna]

I ordered the tomato trees and they got here today, but they sort of look dead. Do you think that is normal?

Did they survive? My order didn't survive the shipment...fortunately, they credited my cc for the damaged plants though.


The tomato plants are getting stronger, I didn't plant them outside at first because they were not strong enough to make, plus it was a very cool May, I don't think they would have survived. My plan is to plant them outside this weekend. I am weathering them this week. My Strawberry plants took about 2 days and then they started growing and getting bigger. I have a couple of flowers on the plants. I'll take pictures and upload them later today.

Anna ~ Sorry to hear about your plants, I hope they rebound... I remember reading they have a guarantee on the plants if they do not survive. I'd look into it if you don't think they will survive.

Good Luck!

My strawberry plants have sprouted with a couple of leaves, but nothing since then. I even used the Miracle Grow Potting Soil. At least they made good on my other plants that didn't survive.

One of mine is doing great. It is over 3 feet tall! I may have tomatoes after all. The other one did not make it.

I have leaves on my tomato, green and red bell peppers, but that's it. I planted mine back in April (?). I'm hoping that one day they will produce something. I didn't even bother with the strawberry plant.

Sorry to hear your luck was nearly as bad as mine...call them because they will give you credit for what did not make it thankfully!

My tomato plants were getting really big! We took a picture two nights ago to post up here. (I'll get them up when photobucket is back up they are down for maintence)
They are huge... but now they are down on the ground We had strong storms last night, and when I got home DH told me that I'll need to stand the tomatoes back up in the morning

This morning I went out to check on them, and I can't stand them up until I get something else to hold them up. The little tomato cages aren't going to work. So this morning I'm heading out to get some more supports. There are some branches that broke, but hopefully not too many more.

How is everyone else's tomatoes doing?

My tomatoes are doing fabulous!! They are growing tall and have little blooms on them. But I definitely need to stake them ASAP.

Here the picture of the tomatoes when they were up ...

My strawberry hanging basket has been doing good. We've had about three strawberries... hopefully more will be coming in.
