Some cherry tomatoes. They look like they're on steroids, though. They're pretty big for cherry tomatoes.

We had a bumper crop in summer, so I can only imagine what the fall harvest will look like!

I planted them in may and they just started producing and now I can't find my fence. My son jumped the fence for me today to stack them up some. Some or taller then 8 feet.
Just wished they would turn!!!

Mine have escaped their cages and flopped over the tops. They've outgrown the bird netting, too. It looks like a horrible mess, but they still keep producing!

These are the ones from summer. I have no idea how tall they are now, but I'm guessing they're about 8' tall.
