Default My Humble List

Having had a lull in tomato growing last year due to some life events, I was fortunate enough to be gifted a large greenhouse over the winter, and am looking to make use of it with what I hope is a solid list of tomatoes that taste good and produce well. Nothing exotic, or dwarfs, or much color. Just tomatoes to give away by the bag full, if everything works out. 5 to 10 of each-

Neves Azorean Red
Landis Valley Brandywine
Cosmonaut Volkov
Bulgarian Triumph
Opalka
Eva Purple Ball
Stump of the World
Indian Stripe

Will also be growing cucumbers, melons, squash, peppers, pole beans and miscellaneous flowers in said greenhouse.

I wish everyone luck in what will be a glorious tomato growing season!

Every year I say I want to try Stump of the World and then forget to buy seeds. Oh well, maybe I'll remember next year. Good luck with your new greenhouse.

I think you have a solid list. I grow Cosmonaut Volkov every year and also quite like Indian Stripe and Eva Purple Ball.

I like your humble list, Tom. Good choices. I have grown NAR, Red Brandywine, Eva Purple Ball and Stump of the World. Reliable and tasty.

Looks great to me! I've grown NAR and Eva Purple Ball and they are both wonderful.
