I'm hoping for a better year this year after harvesting no more than half a dozen fruit in 2021: a combination of fungus gnats and damping off set the plants back and I had to re-sow but catastrophic blight wiped out all 40 plants!
This year I'm growing :-
Roma & San Marzano for bottling as usual, 6 plants of each
Mount Vesuvius for drying, 6 plants (New)
1 or 2 plants of all these
Brandywine Black
Black Cherry
Pineapple
Cherry Roma
Omar’s Lebanese (My favourite)
Tiny Tim
Golden Sunrise
Raspberry Oxheart
Gardener’s Delight
Then from Kokopelli I have two mixed sachets, one of cherry tomatoes and one of the rest, each containing 35 seeds made up from 13 different varieties; I’ve sown six from each packet this year, although only five have germinated so far, but I won’t know what’s what until they fruit! I imagine I'll be posting lots of pictures asking, "What do you think this one is ..?"
The packets include –
Imur Prior beta
Wolly Green Zebra
White Bush
Pastel Sleeves
Black Roma
Black Shadow
Moravsky Div
Gregori Altai
Skyreacher
Coeur de Pigeon
Russian Persimon
Banana Legs
Rose de Berne
Cherry Tomatoes -
Washington Cherry
Farenheit Blues
Rancho Solito
Podland Pink
Raisen Vert
Abracazebra
Isis Candy Cherry
Luckenbach Zebra
Poire jaune
Saucy Green
Black Centiflor Hypertress
Prize of the Trials
White Queen
