I've picked a lot of these and never came across this before- twice the fun to eat!

Nice. This year i had more fused cherry tomatoes than in years past.

Not too often do you see fused cherries. This year I had three on a purple bumblebee plant. Kind of neat.
I didn't notice the double blooms but there must have been a few.
KO

Thanks, I've never seen one before and there are so many blooms, I'd never notice and unusual one on a Sungold.

I had quite a few fused Purple Bumblebees as well, probably 8-10 over the season on 1 plant, but none of my other cherries.

Reminds me of the mega kettle potato chip I pulled out of the bag, it was 3 chips fused together an insanely starch-guild-ridden, crunchy and salty delight. It's satisfying to see this same phenomena in tomato form
