The only truly new one to me I am going to try this year is Red Brandywine. Hope I can get a good graft of it on one of my rootstock otherwise it would probably die of fusarium. I'm also looking forward to seeing how some of the new rootstock I am trying this year will affect growth, production and taste on my favorites.

Chinese Purple. Garden Boy sent it to me a couple of years ago with rave reviews about taste and productivity and I have never gotten around to growing it until now.

Kellogs Breakfest - Another that I have never gotten around to growing.

Sweet Million - Its been over a decade, but the seed came up!

Pale Perfect Purple - planted too late last year and the heat got it.

Spadaro is one I introduced and I offered seeds for it in my recent seed offer here, now closed.

If you PM me with your address I'll send a few seeds to you, especially since Tania lists no other seed sources. However, there are some SSE members listing it, Neil L in IL does seed production for me and he's the one who sent me those seeds for my seed offer.
Thanks, Carolyn, I appreciate your kind offer--PM'd you I'm and looking forward to Spadaro this season.

Sodak, have you grown Red Barn before--I'm trying it for the first time this year--heard good things about that one. If you did grow could you describe the taste as you experienced it, thank you.

My first year for Red Barn. Attempting to try most of the Bratka and Ben Q. tomatoes over the next couple of years, plus several others.

Likely one last try at germinating some Elbonian Mud Ball (F2) seed. I'm only looking forward to a long struggle toward getting some plants with fruit.
No way am I looking forward to tasting those awful things.

Oh yeah...Dester, too.
