This year I hope to try the "blue" tomato.

I've had blue tomatoes that were terrible tasting and others that were quite good. Like many other things, the blue skin is a single trait in a vast genetic pool that makes up a tomato's characteristics. Tom Wagner's Helsing Junction Blues were very good this last year, but we found that inexperienced growers had a difficult time telling when they were ripe, because there was no visible color change to indicate maturity.

Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.
