These tomatoes have a nice taste in my opinion. Good for making sauces and salsa. The plants stayed small but the yield was still plenty. Starting in mid-July the plants started looking really sad. They still produced but looked like they were just ready to give up. Not sure if our weather last year affected it or not. I'm trying them again this year.
