I can tell we're going to have lots of nice tomatoes to drool over when the season's turning.  Have you grown any of them before, or are they all new for you?

I never realized there were so many types of tomatoes. How much land do you have for your garden???
I would be supplying the whole neighborhood if I grew that many. I am hoping to grow some sauce tomatoes and a few slicers.

Oh, yes please Pepperdude. I was just planning on the red Romas, but some purple ones would be cool too. I'll PM my address to you or do you still have it?

Wow, that is some collection of toms. I love the yellows and whites the best, for me they are the sweetest. Hopefully I will beat the blight this year and get a good bounty.

PD, I can't wait to see pictures of all your harvest. Even at one plant per type, that's a lot of toms. You can even go in the mater business!

i never thought tomatoes would have lots of varieties and colors as such.  i just know how to eat them yet i can't distinguish one from the other.
