Default Six-Pack's Tag said Early Girl, Fruit is Cherry Tomatoes........

Red Robin is a miniature PLANT, but the tomatoes are not all
that unusually small. I'd say that most of them are typical
cherry-sized. (I have lots of them growing in 6" pots in my
bay window at present.)

IIRC, this is also true of Yellow Canary: miniature PLANT
but cherry-sized tomatoes. I've not grown Yellow Canary for
some years, but I believe my memory of this is correct.


I am unclear exactly what Linda is searching for and what went wrong for her
previously. "The Birds" reliably produce cherry sized tomatoes, which are about
the size of a grape. Micro-Toms are a very small fruit. As far as I know,
www.tomatogrowers.com is a reliable source of seed. I think that covered all
the bases. :-)
