Ok - it was an orange cherry type, but it was tasty!

I only planted cherry/grape types this year, but I love a mixed tomato
salad.

I've gotten half a dozen yellow cherry tomatoes off of my plant so far
with dozen's more starting to ripen up. My 3 other tomato plants have
lots of fruit but are very slow ripening. I'm being patient (not!) but am
looking forward to making plenty of gazpacho, marinara and caprese salad
this summer.

All 4 of my plants are in 5 gallon pots and seem to be thriving.

Mine are on pots too and we got first ripe ones this week here in northern
Delaware. Little late but it's been cooler than normal. Only had the AC
on one day, all summer.

I'm just a little north of you, just outside northwest Philly. The weather
has been absolutely great (even though its raining today). I could live with
this all summer.
