Can anyone recommend any varieties of really small sweet tomatoes
suitable for growing in hanging baskets?

I've just set some seeds that I thought were suitable "Sweet Baby" as
the seed packet describes them as small and sweet but the packet didn't
mention where they are to be grown. A little web search tells me they
grow 3 to 5 feet high! Not at all suitable for hanging baskets.

Tumbler are probably the best choice but I have found that unsupported
Gardeners Delight to be OK in baskets.

Hmmm. If Gardeners Delight work unsupported, I wonder if the Sweet Baby
ones I've already bought would work unsupported or if they would have a
tendency to snap?

I don't know about Sweet Baby. The Gardeners Delight were hanging from
a wooden window box and two large plastic baskets. They may snap on
the sharp edges of wire baskets.
