Default C'mon Coustralee!!.... Hang in there Girl!!

Seems to be a great year for one of my Favorites! Coustralee has 15 NICE sized ones on it and a couple little ones still.

A FEW will be over a pound for sure! This past week has seen them get bigger with no signs of getting red.

Wonderful taste!! This one is one of the best for an old fashioned Tomato Sandwich!...now where did I hear that before??

I have to say, they're not in the pound range yet but they have that 'veiny' 'I still have a ways to grow' look to them!

Plant looks great and is about 7 feet tall so far!
