I thought I was mad with 30+ varieties..
You don't have a "yellow oxheart" do you Ruud?  ???

ruud

I have saddad,more than one variety who is a yellow oxheart.I have more than 300 varieties. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

saddad

Huge fruits, a Kg each not uncommon.. aka Coeur de boeuf jaune (yellow oxheart) you couldn't spare me some could you Ruud? I'll pm you if you can...
:)

Is this big enough for you saddad,it is not a heart shaped tom but it is hugh.I have also yellow 1884 pink heart for you and yodors german yellow and some other yellow toms also some very hugh ones.

saddad

The HSL one I had was very definitely heart-shaped (anatomical not "image") but yes that would be lovely... a few of those red and yellow ones would be lovely...

;D

kt.

I thought I might be overdoing things with 30 plants of 5 varieties

Costoluto Guenovese
Shirley
Moneymaker
San Marzona
Tumbler


Compared to the quantity some others are planting I don't feel so guilty ;D ;D

Quotein thestates they are called taters why i havenot a clue

Don't really know why ? but I will offer a suggestion;

In the UK some people call potatoes 'taters' and as they are both of the same family this might be a clue.

Plus I think tomatoes in the USA are grown in fields in a similar way as to how we in the UK grow 'taters' (potatoes) so this may be the connection.

ruud

That is it tee gee,in the states the tomatoes are grown on fields ,like we are doing with ouwer potatoes.

cleo

My computer has this `thing` fitted-it sees MoneyMaker toms and crashes ;D

Tee Gee

Loved it Cleo  ;D ;D ;D

Not laughing at the fact your PC crashes its why!!  ;D ;D

saddad

to my understanding 'taters (tatties) is just a dialect contraction of the word Potatoes... but Tomatoes could undergo a similar change to 'maters and then assimilate to taters...  :-\
