My first tomato

I had planned to post this pic on Monday ... there were still no tomatoes turning red at that point. I pinched back a few of the growing points to encourage the plant to develop fruit and ripen those already on the vine. There are sure a lot of blossoms!

When I went outside to look on Tuesday, this is what I saw! My very first red tomato from the Juliette Tomato plant on my patio.
**You can still see the damage caused by the hail storm. The two tomatoes you see made it through that storm.
