nothing like big pretty tomato plants

I hardly dared hope for great tomatoes as I planted my tomato seeds this spring. Last year, all my tomato plants had leaves that shriveled up, plants that grew spindly, and very few if any fruits on the plants. (Here's a link to the sad posts.)

But  - Yeah!! - I have beautiful tomato plants so far. Big uncurled leaves. I planted in beds that did not have the compost that seem to cause the problem last year.

We always dump out the old compost to re-compost it, and plant the year's tomatoes in new. It's August and we haven't gotten more than one tomato but it's a lack of bees. So sad.
