bloom already

Maybe it's because this July is the coolest in 118 years but these black-eyed susans are sure taking their time.

IMG_1560_LR The two cherry tomato plants are full of tomatoes. 4 have ripened and been eaten, they're good!
IMG_1559_LR This is a large tomato variety called a "mortgage buster." Of two plants, only one tomato has started growing. Why would a tomato be a mortgage buster? I don't get it. I also don't get why these tomato plants aren't tomato-ing.
