Purple Bumblebee
Lucky Tiger

Copper River
Striped Roman
Black Krim
Zapotec
Lindy's Little Krim
Striped German

And for yellows, I'm undecided: pork chop? yellow furry boar? tax? dr. Whyches?

For a nice red, I'm wondering about Maya and Sion's Airdrie Classic or Rebel Yell. I wish I could grow both, but I don't have quite enough room... I might knock out one of the cherries for it though!

Hearts and Pastes never do well for me, I have a hot summer with long days, but a shorter growing season. I love super sweet full flavoured tomatoes that are good producers, and gush for anything striped. Any suggestions or substitutions for what I have are welcome!
Trying the Copper River and Rebel Yell this year and loved the striped German although the Brandywine was better producer for me. Probably wet cool nights made difference. Good luck! This year.
