2010 This is a fabulous paste tomato, very productive and very tasty, very large. The plants we grew were also 6' tall and so loaded with huge tomatoes that huge cages placed deep into the ground still toppled over and 8 ft stakes had to be placed in the ground at each tomato cage to hold them up. Will grow again for 2011. |
