Is this a micro?
And if those flowers set fruit should I save seeds?
Neighbor gave this to us to babysit while she was on vacation, and it just never grew or looked happy. The pot is recycled, it’s not a Burpee.

If it's not a micro it's a Charlie Brown!

Those are some large sepals. Very interesting foliage too. Maybe Roguse leaves, its hard to tell.
If i had to guess, I'd say it's some f2 cherry tomato that is reverting back to a more wild parent. But that is totally hypothetical

It's very close to a Charlie Brown. I had one, once. Just as tall, less branches/leaves, only one terminal flower. A slow death before fruiting. If I had hung a SunGold on it like an ornament, it would have keeled over.

Re: Is this a micro?
It is almost Christmas, so I guess the plant matches the season. The guess about F2 cherry seems quite plausible. I do think it was a volunteer that grew out of a bucket of my compost that I shared over the fence.
