Grow Your Own Magazine

Dear Grapes,

They are so colourful, from white, yellow, red, orange, pink and purple (if I am not mistaken). I know it takes long growing seasons but is it worth to grow one ?
Have you grow any of them before ? how big are they ? and do they taste nice ?

Many thanks in advance .

I dont know as I havent grown them before but I will be intersted in any replies.

I tried ildi cherry toms last year and they were really tasty, growing yellow centifour as well this year and plenty of beefsteak and salad types, I have siletz on the go at the moment as they are an earlytom which prefer cool weather.

Cheers Chris

Do you mean 'big' toms or just ox-heart toms?

As for big tasty toms, we've grown ananas noire & black krim, both very tasty but prone to splitting.

It is the oxheart SBP, I am thinking of the white or pink or the yellow one .

Oh dear, didn't meant to tempt you but I am glad you like it too. They said to be tasty but I need confirmation .

Sorry momol, don't like white tomatoes, at all, no, no, no! - though as someone said they're meant to be better for arthritis suffers than the red ones?

They are sweeter which is good for gastritis and ulcer suffers. I like sweet ones plus I do have gastric probles (can't take too much acid) .
I just love the shape and colour ( and hopefully the taste too).
