Some strange tomatoes
The weedkiller contamination in my compost is causing a few deformities in my tomatoes. However, looking on the bright side, at least it looks as if I will get at least some tomatoes, even if the yield is poor.
Many of the varieties I am growing this year are Beefsteak ones, well known for the irregular shape of their fruits, but “Gardener’s Delight” is NOT one of those. Despite some very strange-looking “flowers”, this plant is still managing to set some fruit.

Many of the “Orkado” fruits, normally regular and round, are developing a waist!

“Ferline” is also usually quite conventional, but this one has got a nose:

This delectable beauty is “Cherokee Purple”, which last year produced some of the best-looking tomatoes I have ever grown. Not this year….

This “Giant Syrian” doesn’t seem too bad. I think it would have been a bit “rugged” even in normal circumstances.

This fruit of “Orkado” looks as if it is ripening already – which is very early – but if you look closely you will see that it is unfortunately developing Blossom End Rot. The dark brown patch on the underside betrays this.
