kayrobbins - Thanks for the nice words about Painted Pink. There have been a lot of obstacles to overcome in developing blue tomatoes with good flavor. Selections of breeding stock made by researchers early on were partly to blame. Fortunately, many of the lines out there now are much improved.
I grew a plant labeled Indigo Cherry Drops from a local nursery last season and it struggled in our unusually damp, cool weather. It would be better to have started from seed and I should do that this year.
