If These Things Eventually Take To The Streets...

... killing everything in their path, I do apologize.

I decided this year to do some container gardening on the balcony. Never one to do something small when it can be done bigger than all get out, I planted three types of tomatoes (regular plain old, cherry and yellow), three types of pepper (orange, green and some sort of cherry variety that is either sweet or hot - I've forgotten), zucchini, cucumber, cabbage (not my idea - blech), and rainbow swiss chard. I wanted squash and eggplant, but I was brought back to reality vetoed by someone with no sense of grandeur (who also apparently wants to sit on our balcony).

So, this is the tomato tree:

This thing is taller than me. It is huge. Gigantic. It might be the most fabulous thing ever, if it ever grows a tomato.

I do have two cherry peppers, and if they finish ripening, I can figure out if they are sweet or hot. Preferably in some way that doesn't result in a Lucille Ball moment.
