That's it then. I am not afraid to build a tall frame. I made an 8 foot trellis for green beans last year with a woven cargo net for them to climb. This is going to be fun.

I'm new to growing sauce/paste tomatoes, so I chose a few Oxhearts and a few paste types. One that has my attention is Black Plum. I've read in many places that it is thought of as a paste tomato as well. I'll have to give it a try. |

I dont really see Black Plum as a paste tomato, to me it is more like a salad tomato.
Very tasty and prolific in the Texas summer. It will be one of your first to get fruit from this spring, and will keep rewarding you for a long time. Worth |
