I grow different ones every year so do not have a real favorite yet.
I did like Cherokee Purple when i grew it. It had a bit of a smoky flavour to it, I thought.
I like yellow pear as it is a favorite with the grandkids. It fits nicely in small hands,-- and because it is on the mealy side --it does not squirt juice all over when they bite into one.
This year I am going to grow Beam's yellow pear which is supposed to be suitable for the northern gardens.
Will keep in touch with this forum when I get to tomatoes.
Right now I am WS perennials. And have started geraniums, tuberous begonias and petunias under lights indoors.
