Sally, I like your philosophy about planting tomatoes, I do that, too. Plus I like the different tastes of different tomatoes. I like to try at least one new variety a year to see if they are good for my hot and humid climate. I now have a list of tomatoes that have become standards for me. I grow 2 to 4 of these every near, and then the rest new ones. I am guilty of growing up to 15 plants a year, I am cutting back this year because I want to use some of the pots for other things, such as onion sets, potatoes, squash, and some new peppers. My son has talked me into growing a habanero pepper this year.
