Black Tula is my favorite and I'll be growing some more this year, you can buy seeds from Ready to grow.

I grew Black Ethiopian last year - a black plum which was very tasty indeed!  Grew it in the open on my allotment and picked bucketfulls!  Will be doing those again this year, and White Beauty...planning pretty tomato salads already!

I like Black Russian, too, although it's a big plant.
