In my seemingly never-ending quest to find a replacement for my favorite sauce tomato, Viva Italia, I'm trying several new varieties this year:
LaRoma 3 (a determinate hybrid)
Milano Plum (a determinate open pollinated type)
and Granadero (a hybrid semi-determinate type)
I'm also trying a de-hybridized version of "Big Beef" (from Tomatofest), and 'Independence Day,' an OP type that should be similar to the hybrid '4th of July.'
and probably a couple more new ones, but haven't decided which ones yet...
Has anyone grown any of the above - and if so, what did you think of them?
