    Can you give me info on these tomato varieties?

    I've been given some tomato plants of four named varieties, but without details on them and I've only been able to find one (Roma) via Google. For the others I have no idea whether they're cordon or bush and outdoor or greenhouse.

    Anyone know anything about:
    Cosfior
    Garpea (or maybe Gardea)
    Bibe

    I guess there may be some possibility the labels are misspelled.

    Never heard of any of them, but could "garpea" be "grape" as there are many grape varieties.

      I think it is garpea, i think they are a small bush cherry tomato. I got some free seeds recently and there were three varietys,one was garpea,one was fiorentina and the other i cant remember.

        I think the only Florence tomato listed anywhere is "Fiorentino Costoluto" and a very fine tomato it is.

          I think the Garpea maybe " Garden Pearl " a bush, cherry tom.

          Cosfior maybe "Costoluto Fiorentino " a large tom needs support.

          Bibe ? Big Red ? Brown Berry ?

          You have to loose sight of the shore sometimes to cross new oceans

          I would be a perfectionist, but I dont have the time

            This starts to make sense, it never occured to me the labels might be abbreviated.

              There is an American variety called big beef.
