Fence line at Sunset
Here are some of my plants getting hit with the last rays for the day at sunset. Ami

Ami, what variety is in the second pix? Looks like San Marzano Select Redorte which I grew this year.
Looking good after a troubled start this year. Ted

The one in the center is Casady's Folly and the one to the left is Christopher Columbus. Here's pictures of Casady's Folly fruit I picked today from that plant. Ami

Hmmmm!!! Okay.
How about some pictures when you cut them? I'm finding myself gravitating toward the paste types for juice and sauce. San Marzano SR and Amish Paste are doing well here. I made some tomato juice this year that is "really" thick. You can almost pick it up with a fork. And, best of all, it's absolutely delicious. The way to get it thick is to remove the seeds and seed gel before running it through a food mill. It comes out of the food mill so thick you can make little "peaks" on the surface. So, if these have lots of meat to them, they might help out the efforts here. Ted

Ami, how does Casady's Folly taste? How is it on production?

DDevil, you can get an idea of production by the second picture in my initial post. I'm not a big paste fan and do not grow many varieties but the taste is good. I had a problem on the initial fruit with BER but that has subsided and now the fruit are normal.
Ted, I think they would make a great addition to your garden next year. Your on the list. I'll expose them when I get the next ripe ones. The two biggest are in my stomach and the seeds are fermenting. The other four were appropriated by my daughter. Ami
