So what do you do? Support them as if they are 2 plants, or lop one arm off, or just leave them to do whatever they feel like?

I think I'll stick another cane in and support both ......if I lopped one off it'd probably be the wrong one

I have a former but it's a Wispiniconywotsit Peach...but I have a BOGOF, I'm so happy

I just grow each one up it's own cane - a double cordon, as long as you feed and water well, 2 for the price of one can't be bad can it

Thanks everyone - its double caned now and rechristened Bogof Costoluto Fioriwotsit!

It's a conspiracy.........

**taff** · 04-06-2012, 02:54 AM

nope, it's natural..and don't you go trying to make them feel bad because they're a duo now

Ha, just posted this weird anomaly in another tomato thread. Glad i'm not the only one

Mine is either San Marzano 3 or Alicante, can't remember if its just the one or both.

I've got a black cherry doing it, so I put it outside where it can reflect on it's behaviour.....
