I just finished planting:

I'm footloose and hybrid-free. I have several of the orange slicer BHN-871 from Johnny's, but that was going to be my only hybrid. I just couldn't do it.

The big winner out of the seed swap seeds I started has been Gribovskiy:

It's growing so well, I had to plant a lot of them; they were my best plants. I had about 20 or so. I also planted an equal amount of Taxi, my other strongest-growing variety so far.

Other varieties:
Mountain Princess
Titan Red
Ballada
Little Bells
Red Kaki
Oranze
Qinyai Huang (orange Chinese slicer)
Peping Chieh
Huang Se Chieh
Ten Hung Tan Chieh
Cosmonaut Volkov

The last three are indeterminates, but I like them so much, I can't resist giving them a try in the high tunnel. The last two are the first red heirlooms I have grown that beat Big Beef in flavor and rivaled it in production.
