Default Burpee "Narrow" tomatoes

I made this list up to help select some suitable varieties for use in my EarthBoxes next year. So I thought it might be of interest to other growers using containers. There are some tasty varieties in the group, and I included both hybrid and OP. I didn't include any cherry varieties, although I doubt that many would be "narrow" plants. Burpee lists these dimensions for most varieties as the width at maturity. All are Ind. except as noted. One other note -- Orange Wellington is supposedly a hybrid (F1), and that is what my packet says, but the web site does not show it to be a hybrid. I've written and asked its true category. At any rate, it is a great tomato (IMO), and always does well here in 5b.
