I am growing Red and Yellow Tumbling Tomatoes for hanging baskets.  I only have 50 to sell. I didn't want to be stuck with a bunch of hanging baskets in the high tunnel.  I put two in a 10 inch basket and I am going to sell them for $10-$12 at our early Farmers Market.  I have seen them for up to $19.95 on a website.  I was hoping they would be trailing over the sides by Mothers Day, however I got a late start with them.

I started some of these not knowing what they were.  The packet given to me said "Yellow Can-" with the rest of the label torn off.  When they began growing out it was evident these were dwarf tomatoes with very distinctive dark foliage.  A customer to the greenhouse today identified them as Yellow Canary.  TGS says it can be grown in a hanging basket or a 7 inch pot.  I'm thinking of potting them up into hanging baskets to sell for Mother's Day.  Will the plant grow large enough to "fill" the pot, tumble over the side, or should I plant something else to hide the edge??  And what do you charge for your hanging basket tomatoes??
