+ | ===== Varieties of tomatoes we have grown ===== | ||
+ | Here are the few varieties of tomatoes we have successfully grown. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Brandywine ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | As for looks, well, Brandywine is all over the place - strange shapes with no consistency. Ah, but the flavors. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Romalina ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | The shapes of the fruit varied from the typical, pear shape, to oval, just depending on the plant. For an indeterminate, | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== TPS Golden ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | This wonder has survived severe frost, resisted late season blight, and has a will to live like no other tomato I have grown. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Golden is indeterminate and matures in about the same time as Brandywine and Romalina. | ||
+ | |||
+ | When I was saving seeds from TPS Golden I was amazed at how few seeds there were. These beautiful tomatoes have few seeds with lots of firm flesh. And did I mention they taste great!\\ | ||
+ | {{: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Stupice ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | We tried these in 2013 both on a hoop house and outside at home. Those outside were severely affected by late season blight even though we were careful about any exposure to other gardens. The fruit were medium and flavorful, but we didn't harvest enough to get a good picture about their suitability in our gardens. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Koralik ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | We grew these in 2013. Korakik is a cherry tomato that has good flavor but a tough skin, which makes them less desirable for eating. They were prolific but like other varieties we grew that year they were subject to late season blight. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Super Lokota ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | These plants were making big, globe-shaped tomatoes, but taking so long to do it we never saw what one looked like when it was ripe. Supposedly, Lakota grows well up here in the Pacific Northwest, but where we grow the season wasn't long enough in 2013. These might do well in a hoop house or with the weather we had in 2014, but I think it might be tight. |
