Black Cherry, Supersweet 100, Pineapple.

Lucky Cross and Hillbilly round out my current top 5. I seem to change my mind every time I have a good crop or an outstanding individual specimen, though.

Good to know! I'm growing my first crop of tomatoes from seed this year, second crop ever. Last year's was from Lowe's transplants into their 5 gallon paint buckets. Total flops as they ended up with bacterial spot I think.
This year I'm growing the Cherokee and Amish paste from seed along with a couple others, in the ground as well as a couple in containers. I just didn't have the heart to throw the extra plants in the woods when I had perfectly good containers. I've been spraying them regularly with copper fungicide, and they are all quite healthy this year. Glad to know they are someone's faves and am even more excited for the fruit! Can't wait :-)
