A 12oz Cherokee Purple. Delicious, but I do need to find an earlier black tomato variety to add to the mix next year.

The long cool spring here followed by a heat wave seems to have delayed most things a bit, but they're finally kicking off. My cucamelons and eggplant are blooming, and the okra plants are setting their first pods. Summer squash has been at it for a while. I think my fall garden will have to be late this year, but I use frost cloth, so I'll have some wiggle room.
