Tomatoes have been one of the most popular vegetables for decades. They are easily grown from small, flat seeds, which develop vines that easily tower to an average of 6 to 8 feet tall. The plants bare heavy, rounded fruits that boast a juicy, flavor filled flesh. Tomatoes come in all sorts of colors, including yellow, orange, orange-red, red, pink, brown / black, and even come in striped variances as well. Just as there are several colors of tomatoes, there are just as many shapes as well.
