I get double blossoms sometimes, and they can look like mutants.

I have one I let go just to see what it would do and I have a 'siamese twin' tomato, 2 stems, 2 blossom ends, 1 fruit. I don't know if it will end up being worth picking but I'm leaving it out there just for kicks.

Lelia.......That's what I thought (dbl blossoms) it might be, I just have never seen such a thing and for it to happen on 3 different varieties. I thought that the plants may have been gettin' together @ night to conspire against me, payback for last yr........

ediej1209.......I only had 1 stem and blossom, just it was on some kind of tomater steroid or sumthin'......I don't know yet if I'll let this one go, it does kinda look like twins....It would be nice if I had some slight clue of what kind of tomato this is. It's clear across the garden from where I abused plants last yr............Hmm should be interesting.......Thanks

Fused blossoms. I have tons of twins and triplets. I find that they are more affected by catfacing, and although they grow large and look interesting, they tend to have a lot of woody sections inside. I pull almost all of them off, unless they have a shape that looks like it will develop into a good, usable tomato.

Some people call them "King blossoms"... they often give huge fruit, somewhat contorted sometimes...

Here's one from a Cherokee Green, which led to Cherokee Bi-Color:

Oh my goodness! I was right... Mutants!.........Thanks for the pict, I looked @ the developing 1 this morning and decided I didn't want the unknown to waste energy on the 'thing' that was tryin' to become a tomato. W/ the replies I've gotten I'll quit sweatin' it, check any developing fruit and find something else to fuss about (won't take me long........) ;o)
T.............

I have one on my Porterhouse plant thats stem is as thick as one of those kindergarten pencils. I know it will become a massive mutation, but seeing it will be fun :)

I just didn't have the 'guts' to wait and see. Still waiting for my 'big' tomatoes to ripen. Patience isnÂt one of my strong suits, so in my head I decided to take it off so the mystery plant can devote more effort towards the other fruitsÂÂ.WeÂll seeÂÂÂÂI think once I start getting more toms (other than romas and cherries) IÂll have more tolerance and wait on more of these.

I just had never seen anything like this (not that I have a super long history, 9 yrs, 5 in a zone that you pretty much need a greenhouse to hope for toms). Frankly, I was fussin cuz I couldnÂt tell you how my toms last yr survive, the abuse and neglect was bad. Just after transplanting, my just turned 17 yr old DS survived a horrific car crash in which the driver and his friend didnÂt. Needless to say, my garden suffered as I worked to try to pick up the pieces of my shattered child.

So, now this yr, IÂm not sure that my renewed focus is going to be rewarded, "killin w/ kindness"ÂÂ..lolÂÂÂÂÂÂ..If I get any more and my camera/ puter quit feuding IÂll try to post a pict if I get an outstanding 1. IÂd like to see yoursÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ..
