Chesapeake is coming back here this year for sure. Loved them!
I am trying again with Scarab (the one I kept for myself was hideously decapitated during a rush planting). I got orange Sunray & so am planting seed from it - loved the fruit (similar to Earl of Edgecomb) & tres healthy plant. Think I have some Greater Baltimore - remember a mannerly plant in the grow bag but not so much the fruit (was getting a bit overwhelmed by late August though). Saw Maryland Large Red offered - want to know how it does. Wasn't there a tomato associated with the B & O railroad line? Magnum beefsteak ( I think that was the name - it was a Chuck Wyatt find) sort of under performed & I'll try it again some year.
Would love to hear of other MD tomatoes you run across.
