Default Tomato plant

Was looking through all the potted plants at the local one and only grocery
store in Wimberley, just outside the store. None of which indicated species
etc. on some tag or whatever. 2 of which appeared to be of tomato variety.
These were almost 2 feet tall, flowering. Flowers like tomato, leaves like
tomato. Price: $25.00 per, ouch. The primary stalk is of octagonal shape,
not rounded. Stalk is around 2" thick. My guess, cherry tomatoes?

Kathleen might have seen them?

Nobody's buying the 2 plants mentioned to date.

Anyhoo, the last rain, got 2 3/4". Hard intermittent rain laid down my
tomato seedlings in the soil and mud. Got 6 Better Boy variety at Lowes in
San Marcos. 6 for $1.98. 4"-5" tall above soil. They seem to have taken
the transplant okay as replacements.

Spinach is doing well. Jalapenos just now showing a good seedling sprout.
Leaf lettuce is visible and going slow. Planted all 3 weeks ago.
