A cluster of still green Sweet Million cherry tomatoes.
The Sweet Million cherry tomato plant (in the container by the greenhouse) has been... busy.

A proliferation of flowers and buds on the Sweet Million cherry tomato plant.
Regardless of what the rest of the tomato plants do, I'll definitely have cherry tomatoes!

A wide view of the tomato patch.
The tomato patch in the garden proper - an assortment of sizes.

A somewhat straggly, but relatively healthy tomato plant that has nearly reached the top of its post.
We have the flooding survivors, which are looking pretty good for the most part, if a bit leggy from what they lost. 

A shorter but fuller tomato plant.
There are the ones that arrived needing a home and are also looking pretty good.

A much shorter tomato plant that's put on some new growth and is off to a good (if late) start.
Then there are the purchased plants, of which some are doing fine and (finally) starting to grow, but others...

A tomato plant not much larger than when it came from the store... several weeks ago.
Not so much.

A tomato plant stem, denuded of its leaves.
This is called 'nibbled on'. Just a few random plants, so no major losses.

A tongue depressor labelled Celebrity is zip tied to one of the tomato stakes.
This year's labeling system. Zip tied to the post keeps them from getting lost, broken, or grown over. The pink below the zip tie designates that plant as a determinate tomato (semi-determinate in this case), which reminds me to NOT prune it!
