I like my "Blossers" and "Showalters", good ole Shenandoah Valley family
heirlooms that stand right up there along side of my bicolor "Old Germans"
and yes, "Brandywines". Another rising star is a potato leaf orange oxheart
type called "Lydia's Orange". And speaking of oxheart shaped goodies, I
can't fail to mention "Red Strawberry" despite the lamentable fact that it
has the maddening weakness shared by many oxheart types, a wimpy stalk. It
is about as easy to trellis as a pumpkin vine. In general though, any
tomato, (including many hybrids) is going to taste good if you grow it
right.
