I only have the one plant of CHEROKEE PURPLE. In the past I have tried BLACK KRIM but very dissapointed. The fruit always cracked so I will never try that one again. But I have read rave reviews of CHEROKEE PURPLE so I figgured I would try it. So far so good. Plant is a good grower and has set green fruits already. Unlike MORTGAGE LIFTER which I have tried before and am trying again. No fruit on it at all. If it doesn't do well this summer it will be off my list forever also.
Another I do like is the pink GERMAN QUEEN but I didn't get any this year. I buy mostly the hybred tomatoes with only a few heirlooms thrown in each year. I have tried so many diffent strains of BRANDYWINE and they all have been flops for me so another I will not be growing again.
This year tried PATIO tomato in a container, fist time for me. Loaded with fruit. Also loaded with fruit is another in a container, BETTER BUSH. And one that is planted in ground but looks very promising, SUPERFANTASTIC.
I love my tomatoes!
