P.S. Thanks to the generosity of fellow Tomatovillians, I've had 2 offers for seeds- thank you! Shove over, Sungold!

It's so boring to grow only one variety...

One variety would never be optimal, but suppose circumstances dictated it: you're incapacitated and someone offers to grow one tomato plant/variety of your choice for you.

one of my own F2 crosses. Because out of that would be a rainbow selection to take forward one would never be enough for me

Sungold. It's the best tasting tomato I've ever had. I'm thinking about it and my stomach just started growling. Only 4 months to go.

Yes, Sungold. And I don't even really like to grow cherries, much prefer big tomatoes. But the flavor is so worth it.

Henderson's Pink Ponderosa. My dad was right about this heirloom from the 19th century. It has it all - taste, size, beauty, production.

Ever tried Sun Sugar? I grow both but find Sun Sugar cracks less and skin a bit thinner. Tastewise pretty similar to me.

Trying Sunsugar this year. I love Sungold until the taste goes funky in late summer. Have heard that Sunsugar doesn't do that......
