Lovely maters! I think I will have to try and get some of the Opalka seeds. They look interesting. How do they taste?

Thanks for sharing your pictures. I, personally, am a big fan of Aunt Gertie.

I’ve heard money doesn’t grow on trees but it looks like it grows on tomato plants.

Great pics and more important great tomatoes.

I haven't actually had one of the Opalka's yet. The first fruit to ripen was partialy eaten by a possum. I managed to set a trap and catch the possum. My one and three year old boys thought that was really neat having caught a possum(they named him Pauley) We took him for a car ride and let him go out in the country. Anyway, I saved what was left of the tomato for seed saving and mice got in the ferming conatiner in the garage and ate the rest. I guess I'll take that as a compliment and consider them to be good tasting tomatoes!

I did have a Anna Russian and my wife had a WI 55 Gold last night. They were both very tasty. Fruits are just starting to ripen here for me, but in the next week or so I will likely have tomatoes ripening faster than I can eat them.
