Update of first year attempt at gardening once again...These types except for San Marzano are from the Burpee Heirloom Rainbow Mix...Only ended up with 4 out of 6 in the package didn't plant the seeds for Golden Sunburst or Djena Lee's Golden Girl...gosh darnoodley Burpee should've individually wrapped each type in the package instead of just throwing them all mixed in!!

My Pink Brankdywine and Coustralee I am guessing both over 6ft...I should probably cut the growth tips

Upclose of PB's

I am guessing these are Coustralee cuse they dont look like Black Krims or PBs

These I am guessing are Black Krims cuse they dont look like PBs or Coustras

Dont know what to do with this one it started growning from the believed Black Krim...anyone have ideas on what to do ie get rid of it or let it grow?

Dunno what these are...the package I bought said there was Green Sausage which is the only that looks like this one but it turned reddish orange on me....any help identifying would be much appreciated...

This is my San Marzano....its hard to tell where its at but its in the middle of frame and some of the branches can be seen pulled forward with string

And first harvest of PBs which my wife loved the flavor of em I will definitely be growing this type again

Harvest from today...

For your first garden, you've done very well!
There's really no way of knowing what the mystery paste is.

I echo Remy - looks great!
I don't know for certain but Burpee probably mixes them in 'cause they aren't sure what they are. They probably have piles of unknowns due to their volume. Good way to move them, packaged as a mix.
