2nd deformed tomato flower grows fruit.

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.

Backyard Wildlife, Possums.

Here are a few of the local Possum clan that call in every now and then for taste.

They just drop out of the sky and scare the daylights out of you.

Cheeky too.

I found a strange Tomato Flower on one of my plants.

G'day folks,

while I was looking at how things were coming along in garden land the other day, I noticed an odd bloom.

I took a few photographs and here thay are.

I remember a while ago a crop of peas, one of the sprouts came up white, not green, it had no chlorophyll in it, an only developed a few leaves and died. Must have had a bad gene.

I have noticed a large wide tomato plant flower that looks a bit like a daisey.

There are other normal looking flowers on the plant, just the one strange flower, so far.

It has a while to develop yet.

Does anyone know if this is a common thing?

Strange mutations in the plant somewhere maybe?

I'll Keep my eye and camera on it.

I hope it survives the feasting attacks from the beasts, that is.

Kevin.
