Whether you have grown dwarf varieties before or not, you will appreciate them when you grow out Dwarf Black Angus Tomato. This very tasty variety did well for us in our 2018 grow-outs. 2.5 feet tall, indeterminate rugose leafed plants, produced 6-8 ounce tomatoes that had very nice flavor and texture. Plants have dense foliage, so it can sometimes be difficult to see fruits. Without hurting the suckers, we pruned some of the bottom leaves to better see fruits. That worked well! Our fruits reminded me of Black Krim, but with a firmer texture. Very good sandwich tomato and more! Expect first ripened fruits about 75 days after transplant. -
Mrs Maxwell's Big Italian tomato is a large, deep pink, meaty variety, that packs nice tomato flavor.Let it ripen well and you will be rewarded. I have regretted only growing out only three plants in my first grout-outs, but they will be back in 2019. For me, this was a memorable tomato because it was tasty, productive and had hardy vines that produced multi-purposed fruits. I had these cooked, stewed, sauced, as fried green tomatoes, sold some at the market, ate them in the garden, gazpacho, you name it, I did it. I ended up not saving many seeds. It's all good though. I saved enough to share a few! Grow these out if you like good tomatoes! -
Great sauce tomatoes come in different shapes and colors. Rico Di Parma tomato is one of them. This pleated tomato makes awesome sauce. Huge fruits are visually beautiful and clean. It's not a very juicy variety and cooks down into thick, stronger flavored sauce, that works well on your pasta or a base for your bisque and soups. Plants produce plenty fruits for such a large fruit. They are a bit late though. Our first ripened fruits were harvested at 85 days after transplant. We continued to harvest until cooler weather, in October. This variety is also beautiful on a platter. Great for sandwiches too! -
Texwine tomato is perhaps the best beefsteak that we grew in 2018. Its flavor is fantastic! This is the kind of tomato that you don't need to use salt or pepper, cheese or oils, on. It's just great all on its own. Just pick them and start eating! If you decide to make sandwiches with it though, watch out! It will rock your world! Texwine vines are not too tall (perhaps 4 feet). They produce smooth fruits that can reach 1.5 pounds. Most of ours averaged about 12-20 ounces. First ripened fruits were about 80 days a continued till season's end. Sweeter, fruity, meaty, great texture balance. Recommended! See It on YouTube. -
The more I think about Brimmer tomato, the more I appreciate good sandwich tomatoes. I'd be honest! I am a huge tomato sandwich eater, but I also enjoy experiencing tomatoes in so many other ways during the season. So when it comes to tomato sandwiches, each year I look for the best that I possibly can. I also revert some other varieties that I loved from previous years. Brimmer will easily make this list. Sandwiches with these were super good and I filled myself to the brim each time. Nice texture, size and old-time tomato flavor. These are sandwich perfect. Try them! -
We grew out yellow dragon tomato for the first time in 2018. It was a pleasing experience. 5 feet tall plants produced prolifically and were still doing so at season's end. They produced 3-5 ounce, pale yellow fruits with top side, dark antho, that sometimes streaked down to their bottom ends. Fruits were mild and juicy with some fruity and sweet undertones. They definitely were head-turners in the garden and at farmer's market too. Our first fruits began to ripen about 76 days after being transplanted in the garden. Perfect for salads, platters/garnish, tomato juice, snacking and fresh salsa and market sales! A solid choice for your garden! -
I was introduced to Velmahoza Magnate tomato about 5 years ago and I totally loved them. Somehow I forgot to grow them out again until 2018. This tomato reminds me a lot of Curtis Cheek tomato in looks, but has a totally different flavor and texture. Plants are wispy, as most oxhearts are. They grow to about 5 feet tall and produce pretty pink oxhearts. Our biggest fruits this year were about 14 ounces, but I would say that they average about 8-10 ounces. Ours always stand up well to early blight. Thick, smooth and sweeter meat that's made for sandwiches and sauces. Recommended! -
One of the most beautiful anthos that I have grown, Stripes Of Yore tomato also has good flavor, without the antho usual taste that many of us dislike. Displaying pretty yellow with random black clutches/stripes, this one will turn heads in your garden! On the milder side with some fruitiness, this saladette tomato also serves well as a garnish and cooking tomato. Chefs love it, so that says a lot! Skinny plants can grow to 6 feet tall and produce plenty fruits. It's also a good choice for market sales. Ours started ripening about 78 days after transplant and continued until season's end. -
Super Choice tomato is a Kentucky heirloom beefsteak that did well for us in our 2018 grow-outs. Thick steamed, indeterminate and bushy plants, grew to about 7 feet tall and produced 12-20 ounce, red tomatoes with outstanding flavor. When well ripened, Super Choice is flavorful, meaty, smooth and a little tangy. there are some sweetish under-tones. I especially liked them sliced with a little salt and pepper. They were great on sandwiches too! Vines were not prolific but produced plenty for their fruit size. I am placing this one in the balanced category with plenty of flavors to experience. Nice sandwich tomato. Made some great fried greens! -
Perhaps the most unique green variety that we have ever grown, Spear's Tennessee Green tomato was definitely worth it! I heard great things about these before I tried them and was really excited to see how they produced. When they began to ripen, I was intrigued by their deep olive color, unlike most greens. Fruits were meaty, intense and delicious! Not too sweet, not too tart, but rich and satisfying, with some aftertaste that reminds me of some tropical fruits that I grew up with in the Caribbean. Put Spear's Tennessee Green on you list, you wouldn't regret it! -

Big, hefty beefsteaks are what you will get when you grow out Holy Land Tomato. Our plants were tall and loaded with 1-2 lb tomatoes that kept coming until cooler weather. Fruits began to ripen about 85 days after transplant. I just had to eat the very first ripened fruit. It was sweet, meaty, flavorful and satisfying. I also love that these have good, old time flavor. Holy Land is the perfect compliment to two slices of bread, some mayo, lettuce, good cheese, salt and pepper. If you can't locate any of those things, simply eat it right off the vine, it's super delicious that way. -
Mermaid tomato is a very unique. A nice sized slicer, this beautiful fruit has very nice flavor too. We received seeds from our European friend who gave us Dirty Curty, and grew a few plants out in 2018. To our surprise, they were larger than we expected. Fruits can reach 1 pound, but most are around 12 ounces. Vines are prolific and vibrant! Before full ripeness, fruits are a light yellow/whitish color, then burst into a beautiful red and yellow splashed, bi-color. On the inside is a light marbling of pink and yellow. This display is much lighter than some other popular large bi-color types. Tomatoes are juicy, slightly fruity, sweetish and satisfying. A very nice slicing tomato! -
Martha Logan tomato is a larger variety that grows on tall, vibrant vines. Our largest fruits weighed about 1.2 pounds and were beautiful. Our plants did not display any signs of diseases. Fruits began to ripen a bit late, coming in about 82 days after transplanting them in out garden. But from that point, we harvested beautiful fruits until season's end. As it pertains to taste, it is very flavorful. It's juice is rich and flesh, perfectly textured and sweetish! This gem has a beautiful aroma when fully ripened. Great for sandwiches! Stake and feed well and your rewards will be awesome! -
I have been been concentrating on some Chinese varieties since 2015. What I have noticed is that they have some very distinct characteristics. Most of them veer on the sweet side. Bejing Zao Shu tomato is no different. This three ounce, bright red tomato, is sweet and rich. It also has faint after-taste of fruits, of which I can't really describe. All I can say is that it's very good. Plants are not tall but they are prolific. These will work well for snacking, canning, cooking, dehydrating and tons more. It's a good little all purpose tomato. Try'em! -
I love eating all kinds of peppers! Hots, extra-hots, ghosts, scorpions, cayennes, just name them, I eat them! I grew up eating all kinds and flavors of peppers. But my favorite all is Aji Dulce pepper. I just can't get enough of them. This no heat habanero- flavored pepper, is something to behold! It's perfect for any type of cooking except if you need heat. Makes perfect pepper flakes for sprinkling on your foods. Season your meats and enjoy the exquisite flavor that chefs love. Aji Dulce is similar in taste to Habanada Pepper but I a little sweeter. Both are fantastic for gourmet cooking! To me, Aji Dulce taste like bubble gum, but that's just me. You must grow this one! -

Ask anyone who has tasted a Leadbetter's Lunker tomato and they would tell you that it's superb! People just keep asking for more whenever they taste it. Nice sized, red beefsteaks can reach 1.5 pounds but ours averaged about 14-16 ounces. Vines produce plenty of bright red fruits that are in clusters of 3-5 and have to be staked early. If you are a seed-saver, Leadbetter's Lunker does not produce a lot of seeds, so you may have to compensate by growing a few extra plants. Perfect sandwich tomato that works well also as a cooking and slicing variety. Expect your first fruits around 85 days from transplant, then until frost! . -
Brandywine Purple tomato, is a one pound tomato that can easily get bigger. Meaty and flavorful beefsteaks are perfect for slicing and sandwiches. But they will make some fantastic, fresh salsa also. Fruits are sweetish, firmer and have excellent balance, with a little fruitiness. I love the aroma of these when fully ripened! Fruits do not have a lot of seeds so grow a few extra plants if you are a seed saver! It will be well worth it! Plants produce a good amount of fruits that take about 85 days to ripen. Good disease resistance, tall vines so stake well. Produces until season's end. A Must Grow! -
Orange Truffles Tomato
Orange Truffles tomato is a unique looking fruit. Bell shaped, deep yellow fruits, have really nice flavor, texture and aroma. Not to be confused with Aladdin's Lamp, Orange Truffles is a larger tomato with different flavor (sweeter) and shape. It also tends to ripen a bit later. Our first fruits started ripening around 82 days. Plants were not tall and produced a really nice crop of sweet tomatoes with good texture. These will turn heads in your garden when they start ripening. Great tomato for snacking, market sales, dehydrating, garnishing and more. Fun to grow! What a treat! -
If production, disease resistance and taste are what you are after, Yubileyny Tarasenko tomato is for you! I have grown a lot of tomatoes from the Tarasenko series and I love them all. But this one is perhaps the most prolific! Five feet tall vines produce huge clusters of pretty, red fruits, that are a bit larger than average cherry size. Fruits have nipples on their blossom end. That's pretty common with Mr Tarasenko's tomatoes. These are well balanced, juicy (but not too much), aromatic and really tasty. Great for snacking, salads, drying, sauces, cooking, canning and so much more! Nice shelf life! -
Piennolo del Vesuvio tomato is an Italian variety that's perfect for canning and even sauces. Slightly elongated, cherry fruits have nipples in their blossom end. Five feet tall plants produce many large clusters of fruits. They begin to ripen in 65-70 days after transplant. Our plants also demonstrated nice disease resistance. We had no diseases on them in 2018. I made some killer sauce with these. I also enjoyed some fresh salsa too! These will work well for market sales. They also keep well after harvest. Try dehydrating some for tomato flakes or dried tomatoes for your meals. Prolific! -
Big meaty beefsteaks on tall vibrant vines are what you will get with Tom's Wonder tomato. These are a little late, coming in at 85 days. But if you can wait, you will be well rewarded. Production is also good, so you will have plenty for your sandwiches, yellow sauce, salsas and more! Our plants demonstrated good disease resistance. They were hardy, thick seemed and bushy. Fruits can weigh upwards of one pound. Our biggest was 1.2 pounds (18 ounces) but most averaged around 14 ounces. Stake well for best results. Tom's look great on a sliced platter. Good for cooking, stewing, sliced in salads and more! On the sweet side! See It on YouTube. -
Taiwan Goddess tomato is a very unique variety. It's the perfect salad and snacking variety! Skinny vines reach about 5 feet tall and produce bunches of about 10-15, plum shaped cherry tomatoes. Nothing else looks like it in the garden, so you will always know where they are. These keep very well after harvest, so no rush to use them. Flavor is sweet and full, nothing missing. Fruits are not seedy. Our first fruits began to ripen about 70 days after transplant. It takes about 1.5 weeks for the entire cluster to ripen. Crunchy, tasty and prolific too! These should do well in containers! -
We planted Sailor's Luck tomato in a place where it could be easily seen in our garden. It took about 75 days before fruits started to ripen. I liked that they were prolific and also appreciated that they had good disease resistance. Sailor's Luck is an oval/blunt heart shaped tomato, which is milder but tomatoey. Bi-colored purple and green striped fruits have visual appeal! It's texture is not firm but not too soft either. It's not sweet or tart and its flavor is very good. It will be a good choice for cooking, fresh salsa, canning, sauce, and snacking. -
or the record, I like this tomato. I was really surprised with Pink Boar tomato in 2018. Honestly, it wasn't one that I had my eyes on. Even after they started ripening I wasn't anxious to taste them. Then one day, I harvested a bunch for seeding... At first glance, 4-8 ounce bi-colored could easily be mistaken for some other varieties. But their distinct and flavorful taste distinguishes them form some others that look alike. This is a very good selection for first-time tomato growers because they have good production, are pretty, tasty and relatively early too. Nice for slicing, snacking and sandwiches! -
Full-flavored, rich and earthy is how I will describe Ruby Surprise tomato. Sporting a look all of it's own, this bronze-colored tomato never turned darker, like some others. This gave them a very outstanding visual appeal! I knew just what they were when I walked by the vines. Ruby Surprise is a 8-12 ounce beefsteak tomato that also have good, smooth texture. These work well for sandwiches. Slice some for a platter display, or eat them fresh right out of the garden. Either way you will have a grand experience! Production is good and plants are hardy. A nice addition for your tomato garden! -
There is so much that can be said about Mule Team tomato! So let's just clear the air. If you are a tomato vendor, grow this one! 5-8 ounce, crack-free fruits are tasty and come in relatively early. Six feet tall plants produce like no other. You'll have plenty for your tomato stand or market sales. But that's not all! Plants are hardy, and vibrant. They are willing producers! As it pertains to taste, Mule Team has good old-time flavor and texture. It's a balanced tomato that's easy to like. Not too strong or mild. It's just right.
