Default Biggest Surprises this season??

For me it has been the F3's from Seattle's Blue Woolly Mammoth! In year where when the heatwave has slowed down the pollination of everything, two of three of these plants are tomato machines! (The third has done nothing, lol)

The fuzziest bluest leaved plant is loaded with tomatoes but none have ripened yet so I have no idea if there will be any blue to them, they are definitely striped. It definitely measures up in the edible landscaping department though. This plant is very attractive. Before fruiting, no one recognized it as a tomato. The least fuzzy, least blue plant has been giving huge amounts of tasty medium size red and orange round tomatoes for weeks with no sign of slowing down, despite being in the hottest part of the yard. This plant clearly has some parents that don't mind heat! LOL

Biggest disappointment? Terhune. One malformed tomato on it so far. My volunteer plants are doing better.
