any experience with these varieties?
A local grower has an interesting availability list of seedlings, many of which are described as good for coastal conditions (cool summers). I hadn't heard of most of the following varieties! Does anything on this list stand out as a must-try?
Black Ethiopian Purple Oval, small 70 Customer favorite, high yields. Black Magic Black Round, small 70 Red blk. Prolific, delicious. Black Prince Purple Round, medium 75 Great smoky flavor. Lots of fruit. Cappuccino Chocolate Round cherry 75 Small chocolate cherry. George O'Brien Red Plum, med 75 Great flavored paste, prolific. Golova Negra Black Round, medium 75 Red black from Belarus Green Pear Green Pear cherry 70 Love green-when-ripe tomatoes! Indira Gandhi Black Round, medium 75 Red black from Belaruse (not India!) Japanese Oxheart Pink Oxheart, mediu 75 Sweet and meaty. Low acid, low seeds. Kiwi Green Rd, small/med 75 Cute name & delicious. Ludmilla's Pink Heart Pink Oxheart, mediu 80 Sweet and pretty. Mandarin Cross Orange Round, medium 80 Best tasting in my garden last year. Nyagous Black Round, small 60 High yields, beautiful color, great taste. Tzi Bi U (aka Violet Jasper) Striped Round, cherry 70 Delicious prolific striped cherry from China. |
