tomato plants have wilted

11 years ago

I have two cherokee Purple plants right next to eachother and they have wilted. they wilted over a week ago and the leaves are still not browned out and dry. they are just limp and wilted. In fact, one tomato continued to ripen and grow. We picked it today.

Does anyone have any idea what might be the cause of this?

We need to know where you live or at least what gardening zone you are in. Different diseases are strictly regional.

It would also help to see a picture of the plant if possible.

We also need to know if this plant is in the ground or in a container. If a container, how big is it?

Does the plant respond - perk up - to watering?

Much more info please.
