Tomato Experiment

 A few weeks ago Murphy and I were cleaning out the suckers on the tomato plants.  We found one that we missed along the way maybe a few weeks before.  Its stem was thick and the leaves were healthy.  We had heard from the Tomato Tree guy that if you broke one off and then put it in water (he puts his in his fish pond) it will grow roots and then you can plant it.    So we are giving it a try.

I pulled it out yesterday to check and this is what I found!!  Roots galore.

We had to remove a plant so this one took its place.  So far so good.
