Black Prince

That's the name of the heirloom tomato Tim and I planted this afternoon. We put eight plants into eight pots - most of them ordinary red tomatoes, but this one is supposed to bear dark purple fruit. It's a Russian variant.


I would like to be able to say that I took a photo of our Black Prince at night because it seemed appropriately mysterious, to go with the name - but actually, I just waited too long before deciding what to post today, and had to take the photo in the dark.

Very hopeful that we will get at least some delicious tomatoes this year.

  1. Me too! Meaning, I planted a purple heirloom and am hoping for transformative tomatoes out it. We also have the usuals as a back up plan!
