Big Beef from a tilled garden without mulch or irrigation was also really good, because the weather was perfect for it. There was almost no rain at all for the last 30 days.

Do you have any idea where I can find the Rebel Yell. I so much want to try it.

I have seeds. I am slow about sending them out at this time of year, but you can PM me if you want to send me a sase for some. I will try not to take too long.

I will return to this thread as many new to me varieties have yet to ripen. So far we've tried 3 new to us varieties. So far the run away winner is Sunrise Bumblebee. Only had 1 so far (7/14) but it sure was delicious!

SB was my fav cherry last year. Very bright and fruity.

Ambrosia Red was my favorite cherry this year.

Galina's did well even with my neglect and flooding.

It's a race between Orange Jazz and Maglia Rosa as to which ripens first s I can eat a homegrown tomato! I'm trying a slew of dwarfs and they are all weeks behind these two although they all went in the ground together.

Thank yoiu Fred.

Tried my first Lucid Gem last night, that is one tasty tomato!

I don't know about the best, but Garden Treasure is very good. It has a nice shape and yields good too. I also grew Belyy Gigant for the second year, it is a yellowish- white beefsteak that is much better than I expected, throws large fruit and also yields very good. Anyway, I don't see these names floating around much, and they were very good to me, the latter is something different to try.

Is Garden Treasure the one introduced by UF in summer '15? I grew it in Fall '15 and haven't seen it mentioned since.

I think so Barb, the plant was gifted to me. How did it do for you? Garden Gem is pretty tasty too, and produces loads of golf ball size fruits.

I haven't been growing many types in past years but did get seeds in swaps last year and PBTD is the best tasting to me. I plan on growing a few for a fall crop too.

Cole_Robbie · July 18, 2016

That PBTD looks a lot like my dwarf Chocolate Lightning.

Rajun Gardener · July 18, 2016

I've been seeing many tomatoes that look like these from overseas FB posts lately, I didn't think that coloring was that popular.

Cole_Robbie · July 18, 2016

There's a bunch with that pattern: Girl Girl's Weird Thing, Black and Brown Boar, Large Barred Boar, and Ania all come to mind. I'm sure there are others.
