Tomato Varieties That Work and Don't Work in Containers

Psalms441 · October 23, 2016

Hello,
Besides heirloom tomato varieties that advertise that they grow and produce well in containers I am interested in people's experiences with other tomato varieties in containers.
I, myself, have had luck with Kosovo, Moscovich, Green Zebra, and Yellow Lemon in 15 gallon containers. I have had bad luck with Purple Cherokee, Persimmon, and Purple Dog Creek. Purple Cherokee ,and Persimmon the blossoms just fell off and Purple Dog Creek go root bound and stopped growing. Any feedback from others of what is worth it and what to pass on. Thanks.
Janet
