I planted Sungold for the first time last year, and I agree that it's a 
great cherry tomato. But my plant took over the backyard (nearly). It 
was really vigorous, so I'm wondering how it would do in a pot.

Maybe just being in a pot would keep it small, I don't know. I'd be 
interested, if that's the case, because I've started some from seed 
again this year. But even from seed, it seems to sprout quicker and grow 
taller than anything else I've got. It's great in the garden, if you've 
got the room, but... I just don't know about on a patio.
