Here's my miniature tomato patch (last June) - I limit myself to 5 indeterminate nibblers, let them wind up the stakes, and just snack on them. This little patch of dirt gets south sun, and has the surrounding rocks/concrete for extra warmth. It's about the only place I can actually get tomatoes to ripen, I'm pretty far north. It's also right next to the back door stoop so the plants get lots of attention. I usually plant marigold at their feet for some added color.
My favorite last year was Sweet Baby Girl.
