Large red/yellow tomatoes

bigpinks · March 26, 2017

Anyone a fan of the sweet types? Prob the #1 fav of most of my family. I grew Mr Stripey for yrs even tho it only averaged about 2 or 3 per plant. Got Hillbilly from my neighbor and have now been growing that variety for several yrs from my own seed. Its more productive and gets up to two pounds. Sweet and solid rather than mushy. Vigorous plants I support with 6ft oak stakes. Will have 20 or more of these this yr barring a calamity. They sometimes bring 2 dollars ea at the Farmers Mkt. I don't sell any but give away prob 50 or so every yr. Two local libraries who do me favors getting unstocked books are on the receiving end of many of these. Even took some last yr to a local 911 ambulance station to total strangers.
