This is my tomato collection from the 2013 season. I had white tomesol, black krim, copia (which didn't present stripes really at all...), pink zapotec (awesome flavour), green zebra, amana orange, and for cherries I think I had black cherry, sungold, and sugary.

I haven't uploaded photos before, sorry it took so long!

Very nice Lindy. Hurry up with the images :-)

I have decided to add another color : BLUE.
Indigo Rose (OP from OSU) is the one I am thinking.

And... here are last years photos.
I grew Marianna's Peace, Amana Orange, Pink Zapotec, Black Cherry, Indigo Blueberries, Tess's Landrace, Ildi, Blush, Aunt Ruby's German Green, and what I thought was Copia, but turned out to be Green Copia instead, and what I thought was Black Krim but turned out to be a Baby Krim.
