er...tomato!!!

from the top the usual 'catface' of the Purple Calabash tomato
underneath its a sort of tomato mutant!!

I'll give it another couple of days to ripen up on the window sill and then see how it tastes, probably great!

Wildside, I think it kind of fits in with the whole 'alternative' garden thing, other people might not like it but its a welcome thing to me.
GF, outer space tomatoes! great idea!

It is rather hemmorrhoidal, isn't it?
But was it tasty?

Poetikat, it was tasty but your description makes it sound non-edible!
Dora, I'm hoping that next years tomatoes are better behaved!
Becky, I'm good! like the Martha programme!

Claire, blame that comment on "The Vicar of Dibley" where I first heard a joke about hemmorrhoids that made me fall about laughing.

I love unusually shaped tomatoes. And different varieties. It's the great thing about homegrown isn't it?
