4 tomatoes go under the knife. Home grown: Cream Sausage, Darby Striped, Tigerella and guest ; Sungella generously brought in under the cover of a brown paper bag from an expert growers garden for me to sample.
Here’s the line up :
Cream Sausage
As there’s only one ripe so far this has a before and after shot.
Darby Striped
Tigerella
Sungella
Tomorrow see how they , along with some cherry tomatoes get to work in a tomato tribute.

I’ve only just managed to harvest my cream sausages today – the sun hasn’t been kind to them, alas. However – they were delicious! I’m reading through your back posts at the moment and getting ideas for what to grow next year!
Hello ,
Thank you for getting in touch.
I agree Cream Sausage is a good flavour – and very pretty colour.
Other ones I know are going to be invited back next year for flavour are Sungolds.
I’m going to try and remember to do a proper taste off to see what’s a keeper and what’s going to have to make room for experimentation next year. Which have got the T factor ?
( also hopped over to your blog and very much enjoyed the more mangled than the bike english esp the spelling of ‘ficks it ‘ and the artwork !)
I love the blog if you like to trade seeds we would be interested, let us know we have about 100 varieties and counting so far. Evan from BoondockersNaturals.com
Hello
Thank you for stopping by and getting in touch . I hopped over to your site and once I’d managed to undistract myself from the very appealing ducklings (so fickle!) I had a longing look thro’ your tomato section. Lovely tomatoes and very poetic names. I don’t have seeds of my own to trade as I am just a backgarden/yard grower and I’ve always eaten them before I remember I was meant to save some but it was great to see what you have on offer !
