Looking forward to seeing a photo of and getting your opinion on your Joe's Pink Oxhearts when they're ripe. Keep us posted!

Anne,
Here's a preview of JPO. they have gone from green to mostly red in the last few days. Definitely will be picking some this weekend. If it doesn't make the cut as a slicer it should still be a great sauce tomato.

James,
How many of each plant do you have? What variety is the yellow (with possibly blue shoulders?) in the box with the Brandywine Sudduths?

Amazing!

Robin

Robin,
1 each of the cherries, 2 Cherokee's, 3 each of the rest. Oh and 1 "triple play" graft (Sungella, Riesentraube, Black Cherry)
Good eye. Blue shoulders on yellow. That is a player to be named later (maybe). Grow out from some F3 I was gifted. Only grew 2 plants to see what it would do. The orange gold tomatoes next to the Cherokees came off the other plant. Might have to make room and grow a bunch next year as they both appear to have potential.

Wow, that JPO sure looks impressive! I hope you report on taste and yield as it was already on my short list of must try varieties for 2015.

Wishing you continued garden success this year!

Kelli,
They are definitely going to yield well. Be back with a taste report, tomorrow or Sunday.
Some are ready.....
