I suggest framing the variety package and hanging it on the wall. If you grow them you still won't know what it was you liked or disliked. If you like cherry tomatoes either Black Cherry or Jaun Flamee are good and productive with good taste.

If you want a container tomato to grow in a 2-3 gallon pot I'd suggest Sophie's Choice. You can make sandwiches out of it, use it in salads or sliced as a side dish. It's been as early as 43 days for me. Claud
