Captain Lucky is great, one of my all time favourites.
Orange Russian 117 is very good although quite late for me. KarenO |

Hawaiian Pineapple and Virginia Sweets are the sweetest fruitiness tomatoes I have ever tasted. They are yellow tomatoes with red blossom ends. Are you considering stripes as bicolor so, cause there are some excellent choices.
