2011 Tomato Varieties
There is a lot of diversity in the Tomato. There are all sorts of colors, sizes & shapes represented. Not to mention growth habit and when they are ready. I tend to favor indeterminate varieties, because they produce all season long, rather than a big explosion all at once. But I cover the gamut of colors, shapes, and sizes, in the varieties I choose. Below I list my chosen varieties for this year.
