Hi folks, one of this years tomato plants have again grown a defective flower like the one that grew several years ago.
So, here are a couple of photos of it, there is a normal tomato on the same plant as well.
The flower is deformed and resembles a large daisy, or a small sunflower . The fruit that has grown on the flower appears to be on a about a quarter of the flower.
Which brings a question, again, is this more common than I thought, and can you get 2 or more tomatoes growing on the same large multi flower?
I'll try and collect some seeds and see what happens with them.

Genetically defective pea plant. No chlorophyll.
Here are two images of a pea sprout that had a gene defect. It appears to have no chlorophyll in it.
Needless to say, it did not live for very long.
I wonder how common these are?
The images are from January 2009.
