I know it is kinda late in the season for my part of the country but I had my first heirlooms today. Between starting them late and BER. I ate a Rutgers (very tomatoey) and a Black Krim (out of this world! I am definately saving seed from that plant.) My fouth of July guests all had a very small piece. Also had cherry tomato tastings consisting of yellow pear, red cherry, sweet 100, and Itialian ice. The concensus was pretty much everyone loved the black krim. I gave a black Krim plant to a friend at work and hers became ripe about 3 days ago, she shared it with her mother and they both loved it as well. Another friend asked me to grow her a few next year. Here is to heirlooms becoming big in East Texas!

I can not wait for my other different kinds to ripen.
