A few more dwarves
(front row)L>R: Yellow Canary, Micro Gemma, Red Robin
I must say MG is certainly smaller and more compact than RR and YC. I started them all on January 1. |

Yes, looking quite good! How do the others taste
compared to Red Robin... or is this your first time growing these? Lee

Hi Lee,
This will be my first time for Micro Gemma so I can't comment on the taste. I think there is a thread around here somewhere that linked to the University of Florida study about various dwarf tomatoes (Papa Vic, I think) I thought Yellow Canary tasted pretty good last year, similar to RR but a little sweeter. Yellow Canary is also excellent as a dried tomato. Just when the larger, tastier varieties are coming on and you're getting sick of these little cherries- pop them in the dehydrator. They are great as a winter sweet treat. The best thing about RR and YC (and I assume MG) is that they never (well, almost) split. Jeff |

Rather than calling them "dwarves", I wonder if we shouldn't be calling them "little tomatoes"....
