Saves your back and knees too! Hang it from a hook on a deck or balcony and you’ll work standing up. Water and fertilize through the built-in top funnel; trim and harvest at chest height! Also for cukes, peppers, flowers. Just add your soil and plants. FLOWERS thrive in TOPSY TURVY, too! And talk about an interesting way to grow them! Flowers grown in TOPSY will "curl" upward seeking the sun, creating gorgeous "upside down umbrella-like sprays" of flowers. Flowers grown this way look "interestingly different" (almost like a new variety of plant). | | | Features: | |

 Disappointing visualAug 11, 2008
We thought that this was a wonderful concept. Unfortunately, because of the visual, we assumed that the starter tomato plant was included. We purchased it as a gift for our daugher-in-law and had it shipped to her in another state. Six weeks later, we inquired if she was enjoying the "home-grown" tomatoes. We were surprised when the answer was NO!!!...She will try to grow them next year. It seems that the cost of $15 for a mere plastic planter sleeve is rather high.
 Topsy-Turvey tomato plantAug 04, 2008
This is great! This is the second year I have used this method of growing my tomatoes. Granted, they are not the super-sized tomatoes as used for sandwiches/hamburgers, but they are a great size for salads. I have my plant hanging from the sunny side of a covered deck. So easy to trim suckers and water. Highly recommend!
Topsy Turvey ReviewAug 04, 2008
I got this product since I missed the number on a TV ad. The product had all the parts and was sent quickly. The box was damaged so it wasnt good for a gift, but it was for a project that I am doing. You can see the address below. I want to see what the difference is between making your own and one of these. I have seen other ads for more than one for the same price, so next time, I would go for those. Overall, good product.

A fun, space saving way to grow your tomatoesJul 30, 2008
Last year our tomatoes did really well on the south side of our home, but we needed to make room for other things so I decided to give this a try.
Out of the box it's pretty self explanatory as to what you need to do. Open, insert tomato start, fill with dirt, hang and water.
So far my tomatoes are looking great! They haven't ripened yet, but there are plenty of them on the verge. I'll be posting pictures within the next few days to show what it looks like.
Overall this is a good product that I think is worth the price, especially if you are limited on your space. The only suggestion I would make is to make sure that you get your tomato start in early. I got busy and put mine in after it had grown quite a bit, not easy at all and more stress on the plant than it needed.
great productJul 29, 2008
Excellent idea but very heavy. Hard to find a place to hang it and there was a recall on the stand for it. But excellent idea they need to just master how to hang it.
