Are you sure it's not a Rose Tomato?

(Sorry, I couldn't resist)

I've even seen them on my plants in the ground pretty high up on the stems if it rains a lot. Tomato stems just seem to want to send forth roots all over the place under certain conditions.

Though tomatoes seem to be the most enthusiastic adventitious root-producers, I just learned last summer that watermelons that sent vines out across the garden rooted far away from the planting holes at the nodes if they came into contact with the soil. It's a characteristic of many vining plants, and tomatoes are one of them.

Thanks guys! First time here and I already love this forum.

Glad to know nothing is wrong with them...

If you cut a stem and bury the part with adventitious roots, can you grow another plant?
