First year of growing stuff so this year I'm only growing:

Gardener's Delight
Sub Arctic Plenty
Marmande
Alicante
San Marzano 2
Tigerella

I picked some different shades and shapes because some of them are for a sensory garden for children with autism.  Glad I found the thread because now I know some even more unusual ones that I can grow for them!
What I lack in ability and experience, I make up for in sheer enthusiasm!!!

Since you are growing them outside I would recommend two already mentioned San Mazarno, though if you have never grown them before bear in mind that the fruits are almost inedible raw though they are fantastic cooked and massive in size. As an eater beyond compare (personal opinion) ;) go for  Cherokee Purple.
