The Straggler
As I was pulling weeds around the blueberry bush the other day, I noticed a curious little plant that looked very familiar to me. Upon closer inspection, I found that it wasn't a weed at all. It was, in fact, a tomato plant! Last year, I discarded some rotten tomatoes where this little fellow has taken root. It is right by the fence post behind the blueberry bush so I will be able to keep it safe from the lawnmower and weed eater. It is quite a bit smaller than the tomato plants in the garden, and it looks a little beaten up; but I have faith it will grow to produce fruit. Besides, its a Wisconsin 55, so anything is possible!
