More out of a sense of duty than hope, I put some tomato plants in a pot on my fire escape. No sun ever comes into my room, so I was sure not much would happen. Think again! Turns out sun does hit the fire escape for a short burst from the left just before sunset, and that seems to have been enough to bring a fruit, and now to make it (and me) blush!
