    Big = Marmande

    med = Shirley

    Cherry = Ilde

    Im a big lover of cherry toms, i also grow balconi red and Balconi yellow, black cherry and sweet baby. However, Ilde is just sensational for hundreds and hundreds of sweet, marble size yellow toms.
    Please visit my facebook page for the garden i look after

              Big - Amish paste
              Med - 'can't really recommend an outstanding variety'
              Cherry - Goldkrone or Sungold

                I grow Amish Paste and Kenilworth St George too. Amish paste are particularly good with loads of meaty flesh but can be rather ugly looking so don't let that put you off.

                I know Sungold are very popular but I find them too sweet as I prefer my little toms to be a bit acidic. Can't remember which ones I grew last year but a good half of them ended up being eaten straight off the vine although mum found they gave her acid reflux so she'd probably have preferred the Sungold

                Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

                Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

                    will add Black Russian, Paul Robeson
                    ...and Black Cherry
                    I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives....
