What I am harvesting are loads of
same size, perfectly round tomatos with very little taste and baseball

his garden 60 years ago? TIA Allan
Allan, Allan, Allan. I have never seen a gardener in more
desperate need of heirloom tomatoes than you. I will suggest
four varieties, but we really should know what area you live in
or your Department of Agriculture zone.
Dufresne or Dufresne #2 (they are the same): 3-4 inch, luscious,
fruit. Spreads 5-6 feet.
Sweet 100: The only cherry tomato I like. Like Dufresne, it is
a large vine.
These are wonderful!!!! Eat 'em like candy they're so sweet. I'm
growing them for the 4th year.
