I had a crazy one today, my slankard plant had three tomatoes on it that didnt look like a slankards, i left go they were pink this morning so i was going to cut two off but found out they were all fused together,the main vine runs up through them,but the bad part is the one vine seperates and each tomato has its own stem,even though this dosent count its still pretty cool. i will post pics later tonight. also it weighed an even 5 lb, i wish there was just one stem lol. treetop

That was a heckuva glob of 'mater there.

Had it been presented to our weighoff it would have been considered a multi fused fruit because of the multiple stems feeding it. So an E fruit. Strange it fused and grew-in.

I do hope you saved seed from it!
