TomatoNut95 said: Tiny Tim was always my favorite micro dwarf. I've only worked with few dwarfs over the years; many I just didn't care for, like Micro Tom for example, and Heinz VF is a very fragile breed. But this year I'm working with many new varieties that so far I'm really liking. Their foliage is beautiful, but the #1 thing about dwarfs that I'm enjoying is the fact that they are space savers. I've seriously considered cutting back on doing large indeterminate types and go for more compact types.
My Dwarf list this year:

Fat Frog (micro dwarf)
Tiny Tim (micro dwarf)
Orange Hat (micro dwarf)
Hannah's Prize
Parfait
Wherokowai
Suzy's Beauty
Goldfinch
Heinz Classic VF
Bradley
Chocolate Lightening


No wonder your mother wants to sabotage your tomatoes. At least they are dwarfs! How many tomatoes are you growing altogether?
