Winter is really a rotten time for us tomato lovers. I go with the romas too but sometimes it's just pointless when it comes to flavor and then I skip them altogether. For the home garden we prefer the Viva Italia romas as they are much more flavorful than the regular romas. This fall I will be making up loads of tomato sauce from them.
For home grown corn, it's 277A for sure. The seed can be hard to find but currently Jung's carries it and that is where I order from. Cucumbers = Tasty Green burpless.
We spent years of testing to come to these favorites. We tried a new one each year., booting the losers and growing the winner the next year.
While I am way off the iris topic I will add that the favorite cherry tomato is Sweet Baby Girl
