Default Thompson & Morgan

Had good results with their Dianthus and Asters purchased from racks so placed a small order which included Balconi yellow and red tomatoes (for hanging baskets). The order took 8 days to ship (9 if the Sunday night I ordered is included). After 5 days, hearing nothing from T&M but the orginal confirmation, I emailed the company. Their reply took 4 days. On top of that, they are out of Balconi tomato seeds (I learned this 8 days after ordering). Thompson & Morgan is pricey but has some great flowers with excellent germination rates. However, from my experience and what I've seen on their feedback forum, they are not up to speed on shipping.

Thinking about placing another order with TGS to replace the Balconi seed but would prefer to use what I have on hand. Have eight 12" self-watering hanging baskets. It was a small battle here to convince everyone to replace the geraniums with tomatoes so I need plants which fill the baskets, have lots of foliage and are productive. Taste is secondary.

Are any of these suitable?

Glacier
Matina
Kimberly
Window Box Roma
Yellow Canary
Orange Pixie
Lime Green Salad

Aside from the above, if appearence were the most important issue, what would you choose for 12" hanging baskets?
