Every year I plant some heirloom tomatoes. Some have become keepers. I
regularly plant Prudens Purple, Bonny Best and Red Brandywine. This
year I am thinking of trying the following:
Black Krim
Eva Purple Ball
Mortgage Lifter
Stupice
Would appreciate any comments on these, especially in regard to taste,
productivity, suitability for growing in the northeast (massachusetts).
I believe somewhere I read that Stupice, while an indeterminate, doesn't
grow much more than three feet or so high. This doesn't make any sense
to me, but does anyone know if it is true. I was thinking if it is so, I
might grow them using wood stakes/basket weave system.
Appreciate your assistance.
