I planted a variety I got from a friend in Southwestern WV this year called "Radford Tommy Toes". It was named tongue in cheek as it was supposed to be a giant variety. The first fruit that formed was like a roma/oxheart shape which I thought odd. The next fruits to set were beefsteaks. I e mailed my friend to ask him what shape the tomatoes are supposed to be and he said "they set blunt ended oxhearts and beefsteaks"! I ended up getting 5 tomatoes off the plant 2 were roma/oxheart shaped and 3 were beefsteak shaped. Pretty neat I thought.
