I grew San Marzanos last year for the first time -- they were very productive, but I agree with Rita that they were very solid, much more suited to making sauce and canning than just eating fresh IMO. My plants were also quite tall (over 5 feet), so I wouldn't say they are the best type for growing in containers (although I'm sure plenty of people do so). Definitely give them some good (tall) support.
