Last year I discovered a trick with those flowers. Most don't get pollinated and if you give each flower a shake it will self-pollinate and increase the crop.

If you want fruit....pinch and prune on.a daily basis!
The bushes will make a lot more fruit if you prune and pinch back the numerous sprouts. Watch, please!

@NoPlanetB ummm
My pruned tomatoes into large bushes produce heavily. I don't hurry mine. I also like go grow them in 5 foot high x 2 ft. Diameter cages. We can never use them all but we eat them year round. Canned, dried, and fresh. I cut back this year since the pantry looks good. This year will make tomato preserves that will last a couple of years...

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
