Not sure why! I was a picky eater as a kid but learned to like most stuff, just not these. Too bad, since my mom is a huge tomato grower and this is definitely the summer to have planted them! Glad yours are (mostly) performing so well. I have to ask my mom if she has 'Tumbler' - I know she has grown Sungold and I can find out what her other tried & true's are. Hope you are cooling off this week, whew, what a crazy weather year!Karenhttp://greenwalks.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6425975968926101343.post-23447170629643637222009-08-03T18:21:02.673-07:002009-08-03T18:21:02.673-07:00I have not grown tomatoes in a long time, being a ...I have not grown tomatoes in a long time, being a city apartment dweller.

I'm growing two cherry types: 'Sugary' and 'Sun Sugar' which has a few ripening now. Last year I grew them in large galvanized wash tubs [with drainage holes]. This year they're in the ground and lots happier.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6425975968926101343.post-7666481567244630372009-08-02T15:39:47.928-07:002009-08-02T15:39:47.928-07:00You have many more tomatoes than me!

We've been fighting over the Great Wall of China tomatoes as they ripen though, and I see lots of grape tomatoes on the vine. I like 'Tumbler' I'd love to try those in a hanging basket next summer.Catherine@AGardenerinProgresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001060769253273283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6425975968926101343.post-73544718674546883902009-08-02T07:54:15.715-07:002009-08-02T07:54:15.715-07:00It sure is a wonderful season for tomatoes.

This year I planted a heirloom variety called Black Russian, and I see that the first one has started to darken. I can hardly wait to taste it.Jennifer AKA keeweehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16107693230744190952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6425975968926101343.post-4513627979597767452009-08-01T19:58:06.876-07:002009-08-01T19:58:06.876-07:00As a tomato lover, I appreciate your post and pict...As a tomato lover, I appreciate your post and pictures! My tomatoes are doing good. Those in the ground are doing better than those in containers. Probably, I need to buy bigger pots. I wrote down some of the names.
