Natural genetic variations

cassiani · May 29, 2018

From all these years of growing plants this is a first for me. I have this tomato plant in my garden it's an Italian heirloom it's growing multiple branches from the mainstem: Usually as a plant grows it makes new set of leaf by pair of two that eventually becomes the branches but mine makes it by 4!! I am growing 6 from the same seed source (a tomato) this is the only one who has this mutation.
It's a little shorter than the others but I guess it just need more energy to grow like that.
Can't wait to see it flowering
