guerrila gardening or accidental urban agriculture?

[ppp]

I've been meaning to post this for a while..

I found a little tomato bed, in a disussed garden bed on prospect street in fortitude valley, brisbane.

I suspect it was some accident, since it was mostly weeds, with the tomatoes making thier little hidden crop underneath, or is this some sort of guerrila gardening / survival garden? We can only hope.

Perhaps just a permaculture garden?

Cool! Do you think the front has been sprayed or died off from the heat of the bricks?

You could do some companion planting. What goes with tomatoes? I'm thinking calendula for some reason.

Tomatoes are hardy weeds.
I saw one popping up out of a crack in the concrete pavement, under a power pole in my local suburban shopping center a little while ago

Tomatoes definitely come up from seed brought in by birds etc. Their impromptu presence in a garden or vacant lot is a sign the soil is acidic. But hoorah, enjoy the harvest.

Try a bit of basil with the tomatoes. They should love it.

Somebody probably threw the slice of tomato out of their hamburger.
