Jim41 said:I'm new to this site and have enjoyed reading through this post. Most of the discussion centered around cherry tomatoes of which I am not a big fan. I did have a Juliet given to me this year and found it to be more to my taste than any other that I've planted. I plant a lot of tomatoes but stick to two that I've found really work for me. They are Bella Rosa and Amelia. Of the hybrids I've tried these are the best producing and best tasting. I like the Bella Rosa because it makes a good size tomato in the top, where others get smaller as they move up the stalk. This spring and summer were so wet that we didn't make a bottom crop of tomatoes. We had one full week of sunshine and these two tomatoes loaded up and produced like crazy.

I have been buying seed from Totally Tomatoes for several years. I've only had one mix up in that time. They sent me a green striped tomato instead of the Chocolate tomato I ordered. They have been so reliable that I didn't even notify them of the error.


Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! Welcome Jim to ATP and to the veggies forums!!!

I grow Juliet too and I have for years. I like it as I can always count on it to produce well for me. Also they are on the larger side for a grape tomato.
