Can't keep those in stock. It like pulling teeth to get them to try something else. Thing is most don't even do well down here, but folks stuck in their ways and gotta have these year after year even though they know they're not going to produce.
Like Cole-Robbie, I take some extra heirloom plants along. Gotta try and get folks to get adventurous. For me too, those with funny names usually go first.

I have not tried Atkinson, but have the others. I'm going to try the dwarfs again this year. My tomatoes just did not do well last year. I had to leave the wall o waters on late because I was in Ireland for two weeks and then in July three weeks through Canada and Alaska. I just sent in a soil test today because it has been a few years.
