Well me few plants of Tumbler tomatoes have performed very well and we
have been eating them for a week or two. Next time though, I will grow
for flavour rather than size. Any recommendations please?
I like Marmande toms. The big 'ugly' ones.
ideal for eating raw,in a sarni, tomato and onion salad, cooking with,
stuffing etc etc.


Thanks, Bob saved



Tomatoes are one thing I do know a little bit about. My parents had a
tomato nursery near Minehead (or tomato farm as the local yokels call it).
Not sure what variety they grew to sell but Dad always grew Marmande for
home consumption. Too ugly for selling in the market but delicious
especially if eaten still orange not bright red and soft.


I don't mind what they look like... flavour is all) Your information and
advice is exactly what I was looking for)

Thanks again, Bob
