Are any of these particularly tall plants?

lakelady · November 8, 2011

I'm working on the rest of my tomato plants for next year that won't be in my main garden. Of course i have more seeds than I can fit, so I'm narrowing down the choices at this point for next year, and the rest will have to wait until the following year. I have one more little garden spot I'm saving in case I growout any dwarfs in 2012.

There is one little spot I have that is a strip of soil, 2-3' wide (it varies from one end to the next) and about 16' long. So I am limited to what can go in there and thought I would also build some of Raybo's earthtainers to put on the walkway next to them (it's actually an old concrete shuffleboard court that I've never used and the paint has worn off so it is about 4' wide walkway). In looking at what I'd like to plant, I can fit 7 plants in the ground, and the rest in most likely 7-8 earthtainers. I can't find too much info on which plants tend to grow very tall, as those are the ones I'd like to plant in ground.

So far, I've read the Brandywines grow very tall so I have those designated for in-ground ...

In Ground:
Brandywine Cowlick
Brandywine Sudduth
Brandywine Croatia
Amazon Chocolate
Big Zac OP

Then the rest on my list for 2012 would have to go in containers, but I'd like to know if any of these typically grow very tall:

BTD Pink
BTD Heart
Black Cherry
Black from Tula
Brads Black Heart
Cherokee Purple
Cherokee Chocolate
Jaune flamme
Gary O Sena
JD Special CTex
Sandul Moldovan
Sungold F1
Paul Robeson
Fishlake Oxheart

My backup list has these also..I think Indian Stripe is one I've read usually grows quite tall
Ukranian Heart
Alice's Egypt
Kosovo
Bloody Butcher
Indian Stripe
Mule Team
Danko
Black and Brown Boar

Thanks for any feedback you can give
