I woke up early with the TV already on and there was the tomato plant you're talking about. Oh, boy was it tempting, lol. When he said 6 to 8 ft tall, reality set in, lol. I've bought so many plants from Cottage Farms and Roberta's that didn't make it that I've promised myself not to buy anymore. I'm getting weak, though, lol.

The plants may need more time in their greenhouses before they ship. They might still be in a tender stem stage or too small to ship.
